Novel method for the determination of water content and higher heating value of pyrolysis oil

摘要: This research provides a novel approach for the determination of water content and higher heating value pyrolysis oil. Pyrolysis oil from Napier grass was used in this study. Water determined with pH adjustment using Karl Fischer titration unit. An equation actual developed used, results were compared traditional method. The found to have between 42 64% moisture under same condition depending on properties prior pyrolysis. an oil-diesel mixture, 20 25 wt% mixture gave optimum stable results. A new model evaluation dry has values range 19 26 MJ/kg. protocols equations may serve as reliable alternative means establishing
