Abstract

The study, presented in two parts, puts in discussion the experimental results of low and high temperature pyrolysis on agricultural residues using a tubular batch reactor. During the experiment, nitrogen was used both as reaction environment and gas products carrier. The work focusses mainly on the pyrolysis gas analytical composition resulted from the process. The first part of the research is dedicated to the effect of process low temperature on rape straw pyrolysis. The experiments were conducted at 300°C, 400°C and 500°C to observe the solid - gas transformation at relative low temperatures. The main results revealed that, by balancing the amount of the nitrogen, the rape straw pyrolysis gas distribution varies by average between: 72%-77% CO2, 22%-24% CO, 1%-4% H2. The density of the gas in the devolatilization stage varies by average between 1.6-1.7 kg/m3, while its higher heating value ranges from 4 MJ/Nm3 - 8 MJ/Nm3.
