What will I learn?
This Pyrolysis Course offers a practical guide to designing and conducting reliable biomass pyrolysis experiments. You will explore reaction mechanisms, product formation, and biomass properties, then use this knowledge for lab-scale reactor design, operating conditions, and instrumentation. The course also addresses safety measures, environmental controls, data analysis, mass balances, and effective reporting to ensure your results are solid, comparable, and ready for publication.
