Description
Summary:The paper focuses to explain the influence of some relevant parameters of biomass pyrolysis on the numerical solution of isothermal nth order distributed activation energy model (DAEM). The upper limit of "dE", the frequency factors, the reaction order, the shape and location parameters of the Weibull distribution are studied. These parameters have been used for estimating the kinetic parameters of the isothermal Weibull DAEM from thermo analytical data of loose biomass. Moreover, asymptotic approach has been adopted to find the solution of DAEM.Keywords: Pyrolysis, distributed activation energy model (DAEM), isothermal kinetics, asymptotic solution, Weibull distribution.
