Özet

Hornbeam sawdust was used as a biomass sample in the experiments involving char production. Within this purpose, a slow pyrolysis of the biomass sample was carried out in a fixed-bed reactor. The chemical characteristics of the chars obtained at 500, 600, 700 and 800 degrees C were identified by FTIR, BET and SEM analyses. The results of the analyses indicate that the properties of char greatly depend on the pyrolysis temperature. The higher the temperatures reached, the greater the amount of porous material obtained.
