The high yield of bio-oil obtained (70 wt.% at 450 C) evidences
the good performance of the CSBR for the fast pyrolysis of RH due
to both the high heat and mass transfer rates, which promote devolatilization
reactions, and the short residence times of the volatiles,
which minimize the cracking of these components. When
the pyrolysis process is performed in a fluidized bed reactor,
