Thermal and Catalytic Cracking of Toluene Using Char from Commercial Gasification Systems

Tar formation hinders the development of biomass gasification technologies. The use of pyrolytic char as a catalyst for removing tar has been widely investigated; its large specific surface area and pores distribution make it a good candidate for the cracking of heavy hydrocarbons. The present work...
