The crucible contents of the TGA were modelled as a dynamic system with distributed parameters assuming plate geometry. The radius of the sample was taken as the characteristic length for the heat transport. The overall rate of reaction was approximated by an irreversible reaction of T order biomass -> solids + volatiles, assuming the validity of the Arrhenius expression for the temperature dependency of the rate constant. 

The interest in the properties of the chars derived from cellulosic or biomass solid.s extends beyond those associated with thermal transport in the char. Insofar as the char residue from a pyrolysis process must typically be burned, gasified, or put to use as an activated carbon product, there is also a need to examine the porous nature of the char, bi acbvated carbons, the pore structure is key to adsorption performance. In combustion or gasification, the porosity can play a role in determining conversion kinetics in the intrinsic rate controlled or pore diffusion controlled regimes.

The solid gas liquid (ie., S G L) path denotes a general route of converting biomass solid into gas-phase molecules first, and then the gas molecules are combined to form liquid fuels. The approaches following the S -> G L path include gasification, aqueous phase reforming, and photocatalytic conversion.

The solid liquid te., S L) path denotes a general route of converting biomass solids directly into liquid-state small molecules, usually called bio-oil. The bio-oil is then upgraded to generate high-quality liquid fuels. Approaehes following the S L path inelude pyrolysis, liquefaction, chemical hydrolysis, enzymatic hydrolysis, and methanol-phase reforming.
