Difference between revisions of "Pyrolysis"

Since all kind of biowaste contains hydrocarbonaceous material it can also be processed via pyrolysis. However, the composition of the feedstock has an impact on the pyrolysis process and therewith on the products which can be obtained. Usually wood or herbaceous feedstocks are processed via pyrolysis which contain cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in different ratios<ref name=":2">{{Cite journal|author=Carpenter, D., Westover, T.
