Jackfruit peel was used as the raw material in pyrolysis to obtain bio-oil.
The influences of nitrogen flow rate, heating rate, and the pyrolysis temperature were also examined to find the highest yield of bio-oil.
The most important parameter was the pyrolysis temperature.
GC-MS analysis showed that the bio-oil consist of acids, alcohols, sugars, aldehydes, ketones, esters, ethers, phenols, furans, hydrocarbons derived, nitrogen compounds, and oxygenated cyclic compounds.
Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) was employed to determine thermal stability of
jackfruit peel during thermal processing.
