Torrefaction, temperature, and heating rate dependencies of pyrolysis of coffee grounds: Its performances, bio-oils, and emissions

Jiawei Fu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that torrefaction pretreatment can improve the efficiency of coffee grounds pyrolysis, decrease activation energy, and promote the generation of C=C. The optimal conditions are pyrolysis temperature > 600 degrees C and torrefaction temperature <= 270 degrees C. Different torrefaction temperatures have an impact on the composition ratio of bio-oils, with 200 and 250 degrees C potentially being more suitable for the torrefaction of coffee grounds.

Investigation on prospective bioenergy from pyrolysis of butia seed waste using TGA-FTIR: Assessment of kinetic triplet, thermodynamic parameters and evolved volatiles

Guilherme Davi Mumbach et al.

Summary: The pyrolysis behavior of butia seed waste was studied using thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed that the pyrolysis process could be described by the summative effect of geometrical contraction and n-order reaction mechanisms. A multi-component kinetic approach was suitable for capturing the complexity of the pyrolysis process. The pyrolytic conversion of butia seed waste into biofuels was found to be endothermic and low in reactivity. The volatile products evolved from the pyrolytic decomposition of butia seed waste were characterized using TGA-FTIR analysis.
