Flash pyrolysis produces three main products: bio-oil, char, and pyrolytic gas.
3 Key Products Explained
1. Bio-oil
Bio-oil is the preferred product of flash pyrolysis.
It is a complex mixture of hundreds of organic compounds.
These compounds include alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, phenols, and oligomers.
Bio-oil is a liquid fraction of the pyrolysis process.
It is considered the most valuable product.
Characterizing bio-oil is crucial for reactor design, kinetic models, upgrading, and commercialization.
2. Char
Char is a solid product that remains after pyrolysis.
It has low volatility and high carbon content.
Char includes organic matter and ash.
It is a by-product of the pyrolysis process.
Char can contain heavy metals if they were added during the collection and processing of raw materials.
3. Pyrolytic Gas
Pyrolytic gas is mainly formed from the cracking and decomposition of large molecules.
These molecules are formed in the early stages of pyrolysis.
Pyrolytic gas consists of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, low carbon number hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxide, sulfur oxide, and other compounds.
