Effect of sulfuric acid addition on the yield and composition of lignin derived oligomers obtained by the auger and fast pyrolysis of Douglas-fir wood

This paper investigates the effect of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration, as an additive to enhance theproduction of anhydrosugars via pyrolysis of Douglas-fir, on the yield and composition of the ligninderived oligomers. Pyrolysis tests at 500 C were conducted in auger and fluidized bed reactors....
