✦ Synopsis

07 Altemative energy sources (solar energy) determined. Surface areas of between 770 and 879 m 2 g 1 were achieved. The yield of activated carbon was mostly less than 20 wt% of the original biomass. The five biomass samples were also pyrolysed in a thermogravimetric analyser. The thermal degradation of the biomass samples were discussed in terms of the thermal degradation of the main components of the biomass, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.
