A Survey of Literature on the Pyrolysis of Wood and Other Cellulosic Solids.

Abstract

The work reported in 36 articles on ignition of wood-like materials is surveyed. The information contained in each article is reviewed with attention given to the following areas of interest: the method of analysis and general results of the work, the mathematical model used to correlate results obtained, and the conclusions drawn by each author regarding his findings. Recommendations are made that point out the need to fill existing gaps in the study of the ignition process. (Author)
