The results showed that 400℃ was the optimum temperature to achieve the highest yield of bio-oil (28.4 wt.%), where the concentration of methoxy aromatics in the biooil reached to 70.4 area%. The addition of Na₂CO₃ and K₂CO₃ has led to increases in the bio-oil yields. During the microwave pyrolysis of EP, Na₂CO₃ and K₂CO₃ increased the selectivity of methoxy aromatics in the bio-oil, while NaOH showed a negative impact on the selectivity of methoxy aromatics. Based on the findings of the study, the reaction pathways of methoxy aromatic compound formation during pyrolysis were proposed.]]> Fri 17 Jun 2022 13:54:06 AEST ]]>
