Abstract
Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass is a convenient source for the production of bio-oil and other valuable hydrocarbons. This chapter describes the chemistry of lignocellulosic biomass and its value addition via pyrolysis. Technical aspects of the pyrolysis process, properties of the products, upgradation of product to meet transport requirements, and economic analysis unit are the key features covered here. Challenges in the utilization of bio-oil as an alternative to conventional transport fuel have also been stated along with possible means to address these challenges and discussion on the imminent scope of the pyrolysis process.
