Peach pit thermal conversion:

This book presents a study carried out on the thermoconversion of agroindustrial residue, specifically from the peach pit. The technique is proposed as a form of destination for large-scale produced liabilities, in addition to promoting the generation of products with added value. For this purpose, it brings a review on the structure of lignocellulosic biomass, thermal conversion techniques for the use of biomass, separation methods and characterization of organic fractions of liquid products from thermal conversion processes. It approaches with more specificity the techniques of carbonization and rapid pyrolysis, considering the operational differences between these processes and consequent impact on the composition of the products, presenting the results of the chromatographic characterization of the organic fractions of liquids obtained.
