Slow Pyrolysis of Cassava Wastes for Biochar Production and Characterization

Abstract: Production of biochar from slow pyrolysis of biomass is a promising carbon negative procedure since it removes the net carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and produce recalcitrant carbon suitable for sequestration in soil. Biochar production can vary significantly with the pyrolysis parameter. This study investigated the impact of temperature and heating rate on the yield and properties of biochar derived from cassava plantations residues which are cassava stem (CS) and cassava rhizome (CR). The pyrolysis tempera… Show more

“…These findings suggested that CYMB biomass had a more condensed structural matrix and a more reactive surface prone to extended volatilization ( Table 1). We have found that volatile matter diminished with the increase of pyrolytic temperature, which was confirmed by several studies on other types of biomass (Sharypov et al, 2002;Novak et al, 2009;Enders et al, 2012;Noor et al, 2012;Angin, 2013;Sadaka et al, 2014). The chosen interval of residence time could affect the necessary reaction time during the re-polymerization of the biochar's structure.…”

“…When a biomass is burned and the volatile substances are released, a solid combustible residue known as fixed carbon (FC) is left behind, indicating a prolonged combustion duration of the biomass sample and an increase in the sample's heatharming potential (HHV) [15]. Given that it has a favorable impact on the energy potential of biomass, the fixed carbon content of biomass may be simply linked with the calorific value [16].…”
