Abstract:

The thermal weight loss characteristics of yak dung under water vapor atmosphere was investigated via the thermogravimetric analysis. The Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method, master plot method/Kissinger method and continuous coupling method of distributed activation energy model(DAEM) were used to analyze the reaction mechanism and calculate kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis process. The results showed that yak dung steam gasification process was mainly divided into two stages, namely the pyrolysis reaction stage and the gas-solid reaction stage. The steam could slightly inhibit the pyrolysis reaction and significantly promote the gas-solid reaction. The kinetic analysis demonstrated that the reaction order mechanism model(the reaction-orders of the pyrolysis stage and the gas-solid reaction stage were 2.40 and 1.17, respectively) had good adaptability to the kinetic process of yak dung steam gasification. The activation energies of the hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin in pyrolysis stage were 169.32, 185.76 and 219.52 kJ/mol, respectively. The activation energies of the pyrolysis carbon condensation reaction and the steam gas-solid reaction in the gas-solid reaction stage were 275.59 and 312.44 kJ/mol, respectively.
