Application of a New Statistical Model for the Description of Solid Fuel Decomposition in the Analysis of Artemisia apiacea Pyrolysis

Pyrolysis, one of the key thermochemical conversion technologies, is very promising to obtain char, oil and combustible gases from solid fuels. Kinetic modeling a crucial method for prediction rate analysis pyrolysis process. We recently developed new statistical model universal description fuel decomposition, which shows great potential in studying pyrolysis. This paper demonstrates three essential applications this Artemisia apiacea pyrolysis, i.e., identification peak position, determination reaction mechanism, evaluation kinetics. The results first application show good agreement with experimental data. From second application, 3D diffusion-Jander considered as most suitable mechanism stem third evaluates kinetics evaluated vary degree heating rates, activation energies pre-exponential factors (i.e., lnA vs. Ea) linear relationship, regardless rates. Moreover, using obtained an excellent fit
