Laser pyrolyzers are practically the only type of radiative heating pyrolyzer with certain applicability. Attempts were made in the past to use a strong light/heat source and focus the beam with lenses [20] to achieve the desired power output. However, the laser as a radiative energy source is much more convenient. The laser beam can be focused onto a small spot of a sample to deliver the radiative energy. This provides a special way to pyrolyze only a small portion of a sample. A variety of laser types were used for pyrolysis purposes normal pulsed, Q-switched, or continuous wave (cw) [21], at different energy levels. More common are the normal pulsed high-power lasers.
