Wood oxidative Pyrolysis in fixed bed reactors

This research work aims at understanding and modelling the process of oxidative pyrolysis as it occures in the gasification reactor of a staged fixed bed gasifier. It is coordinated by CIRAD in Montpellier and Ecole des Mines de Nantes. The XyloWatt company in Belgium is associated to the work.
