Abstract
The biomass or commonly available lignocellulosic materials could be converted to different types of fuel and chemical feedstock by a variety of thermochemical processes. Each of these processes involves two highly significant and inter-related general aspects: first, material and energy transformations that could be explored and understood through the discipline of chemistry; second, material transport and heat transfer that could be investigated and designed through the disciplines of process engineering. Variations of the reaction conditions and the processing design, which are closely related, are often investigated in a sporadic or empirical manner in order to define the optimum conditions that provide high yields of operational efficiency.
