thermogravimetric analyzer was used to conduct a kinetic investigation of rice
husk pyrolysis. The major goal is to investigate the reaction kinetics of rice
husk at various heating rates in an inert 99.5 percent nitrogen atmosphere.
Kinetics¡¯ importance can be explained by the fact that it provides evidence for
chemical process mechanisms. Understanding reaction mechanisms can help you
figure out the best way to get a reaction to happen. Furthermore, it is of
fundamental scientific interest. The samples were heated at different heating
rates of 5, 10, 20, and 40 K min</span></span><span><span><sup><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">-</span></sup></span></span><span></span><span><span><sup><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">1</span></sup></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\"> from ambient temperature to 973 K. <span>The
