Abstract

Pyrolysis has created many (and will open more) possibilities for high-value utilization of biomass. To obtain the optimal amount of desired pyrolysis products, especially high-quality bio-oil, a great deal of effort has been conducted in both academia in the past few decades, to clarify fundamental mechanisms of biomass pyrolysis and design efficient relevant technical processes. This paper comprehensively reviews recent advances in both fundamental studies and technology applications of biomass pyrolysis. First, pyrolysis mechanisms of real biomass and its major components, the reactor-scale simulation of biomass pyrolysis, and applications of pyrolysis products are discussed. Then, according to the…
