This study aimed to characterize the biochar and bio-oil produced through pyrolysis of broiler and layer litter. Pyrolysis is an alternative
solution of animal waste treatment where biomass is converted into high value products such as biooil, syngas and biochar in an oxygen
depleted condition at a high temperature. For this purpose, a reactor was designed for the pyrolysis of poultry litters (layer and broiler) at
different operational conditions. Result showed that 38% and 35% biochar was produced from broiler and layer litter respectively at 600°C
temperature. Bio-oil production was found 21% and 25% respectively from broiler and layer litter. An effective calorific value of broiler and
layer liter bio-oil (9900 and 9,950 kcal/kg, respectively) was observed that can be utilized as bio-fuel. The density and viscosity of produced
bio-oil from broiler and layer l.. Read More»
