Abstract

This study examined the effects of particle characteristics and size on the low-oxygen combustion properties of char from
coniferous trees (beefwood) and broadleaf trees (beech), which are widely distributed in Vietnam, at two distinct reacting
temperatures (800 °C and 1000 °C). The rate of char oxidation was shown to be significantly influenced by the reaction
temperature. The rate of char oxidation is substantially faster at higher temperatures than it is at lower ones. Particle size has
less of an impact on oxidation than temperature does. Generally speaking, as particle size increases, so do the rate of
oxidation and its duration. The properties of biomass have a significant impact on the pace
