We have pyrolysed cocnut husk at 450 deg. cent. and obtained the following results. Husk 1000 Gms Carbon produced 300 Gms Proximate analysis of carbon is Moisture 7.1 % Ash 3.7 % Volatile matter 37.0 % Fixed carbon 52.2 % Are these results along expected lines for husk pyrolysis ? -Sudheer Bhagade Laxminarayan Institute of Technology, Nagpur - 440 010 INDIA The Gasification List is sponsored by USDOE BioPower Program http://www.eren.doe.gov/biopower/ and PRM Energy Systems http://www.prmenergy.com Other Sponsors, Archives and Information http://www.crest.org/renewables/gasification-list-archive http://solstice.crest.org/renewables/biomass-info/gasref.shtml http://www.crest.org/renewables/biomass-info/ http://www.crest.org/renewables/biomass-info/carbon.shtml
