Combustion technology is most widely applied on an industrial scale. However, biomass gasification and pyrolysis processes are still in the research and development stage. The major products from these processes are syngas, bio-oil, and char (called also biochar for agronomic application). Among these products, biomass chars have received increasing attention for different applications, such as gasification, co-combustion, catalysts or adsorbents precursors, soil amendment, carbon fuel cells, and supercapacitors. This Special Issue provides an overview of biomass char production methods (pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization, etc.), characterization techniques (e.g., scanning electronic microscopy, X-ray fluorescence, nitrogen adsorption, Raman spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature programmed desorption and mass spectrometry), their properties, and their suitable recovery processes.Biology, life sciencesbicsscn/aBoudouard reaction in gasificationChinese reedunderground coal gasificationfood wastekinetic modelsfixed bed combustorreactor modellingAAEMsanaerobic digestiongrape marcadsorption isothermsTexaco pilot plantbiomass valorizationfood waste compostCH4 adsorptiongaseous emissionspolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)waste woodcoconut shellskinetic modelchar oxidationlow-rank coal charnutrientscharacteristic time analysiskinetic parametersash from biomasscombustion parametersbiomassthermal characteristicsbiocrudereaction kineticssludge cakegasificationpelletscharacterizationash layerenergy recovery efficiencyinternal diffusion resistanceFT-IRgiant miscanthuspyrolysisolive mill solid wastes (OMSWs)food-waste biocharmelting phenomenonchemisorptionsteam gasificationNaCl templatebiomass productiontextural characterizationdesalinationash fusion temperature (AFT)thermogravimetric analysiscombustionchemical speciationsawdustNaCleffective diffusion coefficientkineticsbreakthrough curvesbiochar engineeringbiocharamino acidhigh heating value (HHV)salty food wasteELECTRE IIIinterferencesmulticriteria modelpyrroleinteractionsbiogas purificationfertilisationNOxpyrolysis conditionssteampartial combustion reaction in gasificationCO2 adsorptionpoultry slaughterhousehydrothermal carbonization (HTC)calorific valueoxygen enrichmentporositynitrogenhydrothermal carbonizationthermogravimetric analysis (TGA)MTDATAactivated carbonactive siteBiology, life sciencesLimousy Lionel1305967Jeguirim MejdiScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910367752203321Biomass Chars: Elaboration, Characterization and Applications3028075UNINA
