Villermaux (1982) performed a systematic study of gas and solid reactions which can also be used to categorize the pyrolysis process .... To sum up: (1) Liquid is best produced using a transported bed reactor with low temperature, high heating rate, and short residence time. (2) Charcoal is produced by use of stacking kilns, multiple hearth kilns, rotary kilns with low temperature and heating rate, and long residence time. (3) Gas is produced by means of fluidized bed, circulating bed and even cyclone reactors, with high temperature and heating rate. 1, record 4, English, - multiple%20hearth%20kiln
