Reduction Effect of Extra Biochar on PAHs Originating from Corn Stover Pyrolysis.

ABSTRACT: As attention to environmental risks from the PAHs in biochar production increases, developing a low-cost and easy-to-operate optimized pyrolysis process is urgent. The effect of extra biochar was investigated in order to minimize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on biochar and residual tar for the development of a new fixed-bed pyrolysis process. Hence, the effect of extra biochar as a catalyst on the reduction effect on PAHs originating from corn stover pyrolysis was inspected and explored in this study. Pyrolysis was conducted at 500, 600, and 700 °C in a tube furnace reactor with corn stover as the biomass feedstock. Biochar prepared at 500 °C, 600 °C, and 700 °C was used as a catalyst by stacking extra biochar on top of the corn stover raw material. Then, the concentration of PA
