“…The micropyrolyzer reactors are usually coupled with gas chromatography (GC) techniques like GC-MS, GC-TOF-MS (time-of-flight mass spectrometer), or GC-FID ( Figure 2; Choi, Lee, Proano-Aviles, Lindstrom, Johnston, & Brown, 2017;Ronsse et al, 2012). U-shaped two-stage tubular reactors, separated by quartz wool, have been reported by Norinaga et al (Kousoku, Norinaga, & Miura, 2014;Norinaga et al, 2013;Qi et al, 2017;Yang et al, 2013;Yang, Appari, Kudo, Hayashi, & Norinaga, 2015;Yang, Furutani, Kudo, Hayashi, & Norinaga, 2016) for intrinsic gas-phase pyrolysis kinetic studies of cellulose and lignin model compound such as catechol, resorcinol, and hydroquinone pyrolysis. Pyroprobe reactors consist of a horizontal tubular reactor, wherein the sample is introduced using a quartz sample holder.…”
