The experiments were conducted in a tubular reactor with a diameter of about 15 mm. About 10-gram PKS was pyrolyzed with a heating rate 75°C/min, under the flowing of N2 at a constant flow rate 200 mL/min. The reactor temperature is increased to the desired temperature of 400, 500, and 600°C. The modified zeolite was used as a catalyst to cracking the tar of pyrolysis product. The yield product for oil, water, char, gaseous from intermediate pyrolysis at 600°C were 39%, 8%, 28% and 25%, respectively. The resulting tar conversion using modified zeolite as a catalyst was 33%. The main component of bio-oil (tar) was the phenolic group and the presence of zeolite could eliminate the content of acetic acid in bio-oil (tar).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This topic is part of the doctoral research in Chemical Engineering Dept.
