In this study slow catalytic pyrolysis of Phoenix dactylifera(date palm seeds) was investigated in fixed bed reactor in the presence of doped ZnO/MgOnanoparticles. These NPs were prepared by using homogenous precipitation method. The effect of catalytic dosage of doped ZnO/MgO and ZSM-5 was studied on the conversion of biomass into pyrolysis products. By using doped ZnO/MgO the production of bio oil was increased, further increasing reduced bio oil yield. ZSM-5 caused slight increase in the yield of bio oil. The yields of bio char and syn-gas were also affected by variable dosage of catalyst.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
