- First time microwave (MW) pyrolysis of biomass briquette was carried out.
- Biomass loading was scaled up to kilograms.
- HHV of biochar and bio-oil was 32Â MJ/kg and 2.5Â MJ/kg, respectively.
- Pyrolysis product yield dependent on the process parameters, MW power and loading.
- Reactor design can be further improved to increase the bio-oil quality.
Pyrolysis of corn stalk biomass briquettes was carried out in a developed microwave (MW) reactor supplied with 2.45Â GHz frequency using 3Â kW power generator. MW power and biomass loading were the key parameters investigated in this study. Highest bio-oil, biochar, and gas yield of 19.6%, 41.1%, and 54.0% was achieved at different process condition. In terms of quality, biochar exhibited good heating value (32Â MJ/kg) than bio-oil (2.47Â MJ/kg). Bio-oil was also characterised chemically using FTIR and GC-MS method. This work may open new dimension towards development of large-scale MW pyrolysis technology.
