Abstract
In this article, the potential utilization of hazel nut shell as a com bustible residue was studied. To obtain liquid and gaseous products, t he hazel nut shell was subjected to pyrolysis and it was converted to 49.3 % (w) gaseous and 20.0 % (w) liquid products at 475 degrees C for 7.5 minutes in a simple pyrolysis device. The kinetic model used in t he present study was based on fractional weight loss for each pyrolysi s step. The simple fast pyrolysis was compared with TGA technique.
