Abstract
This study covers the slow catalytic pyrolysis of Calotropis procera (Akh plant root) using biogenically synthesized NiO NPs. The synthesized particles were characterized by UV-Visible and FTIR spectrometry. Catalytic activity of the NiO NPs was examined via slow catalytic pyrolysis of Akh plant roots by monitoring temperature and catalyst effect on feedstock for the production of high yield bio-char, bio-oil and bio-gases. At 250°C low bio-oil and higher bio-char yield were obtained. However, at higher temperature inverse results were obtained whereby at optimum temperature of 300°C, the yield of bio-char, bio-oil and biogas 37, 36 and 27% was attained
