Pitch pyrolysis kinetics from single TG curve

Non-isothermal pyrolysis characteristics of giant reed (Arundo donax L.) using thermogravimetric analysis

“…V aclav and Petr [33] observed significant differences among several methods in the calculation of the kinetic factor for the weight loss curve. Although many mode functions can have an ideal linear response by mutual compensation of E and A, the competition and the overlap can easily lead to wrong conclusions, especially if the reaction system has two or more parts, as is the case in lignocellulose pyrolysis.…”

Thermal decomposition of N-(salicylidene)-L-leucine in static air atmosphere

“…Plotting the left hand side of equation (6), ln[g()/T 2 ] versus 1/T gives Ea and A from the slope and intercept, respectively [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. The model that gives the best linear fit is selected as the correct model.…”

Thermal conversion mechanism and thermodynamics of mixed oil in coal‐based needle coke production

“…In the carbonization process of mixed oil, if the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the reaction system can be appropriately understood, the regulation of the process conditions in the production process will have important guiding significance. Slovák and Šušák used a variety of kinetic models to calculate the activation energy of asphalt's thermal conversion using thermogravimetric (TG) curves and compared the advantages and disadvantages of each model. Zheng et al deduced the pyrolysis mechanism of water‐soluble asphalt from the shape of TG/differential thermogravimetric (DTG) curves as proposed by Doll More, and calculated the activation energy of pyrolysis using the Achar–Brindley–Wendworth equation.…”
