β¦ Synopsis
Prune pit chars prepared by pyrolysis at heating rates of 1 and WClmin to 500, 700 and 900Β°C were subsequently gasified by exposure to CO2 at 900Β°C for various lengths of time. Gasification rate was found to be dependent on the conditions during pyrolysis: slow heating below 5OOT and prolonged exposure to high temperatures (-900Β°C) during pyrolysis in an inert atmosphere lead to lower rate gasification. Despite differences in gasification rate, the pore structure developed for a given mass loss due to the gasification reactions was apparently independent of the char preparation conditions. Pore volume in the gasified char (expressed on an absolute basis) passed through a maximum at 40-W% bumoff, apparently due to mass loss from the exterior of the particles.

A demineralized North Dakota lignite was loaded with 2.9 wt% Ca by ion exchange. Chars were prepared by pyrolysis in N2 at 1275 K and residence times between 0.3 s and 1 h. Major differences were observed in their subsequent reactivities in 0.1 M Pa air. X-ray diffraction analysis was carried out to
A set of lignocellulosic precursors of widely varying composition was pyrolyzed under argon at WClmin to 500Β°C. Variation in the total mass and carbon yields among precursors was found to be due to variation in composition, i.e. distribution of the main organic components (lignin, holocellulose and
