Abstract
Agroindustrial residues are biomass of interest as they are energy sources and bioproducts with lower environmental impacts than traditional fossil fuels. Pyrolysis has been used to convert residual biomass into higher value-added products such as bio-oil. This work aimed to pyrolyze cassava peels to produce bio-oil and characterization using chromatographic techniques to obtain essential compounds for the chemical industry, adding value to this residue. The pyrolytic process generated 17.5% of bio-oil, with a high concentration of phenols and alcohols. Thus, this residual biomass has potential for industrial use, reducing the environmental impact of its deposit in landfills and offering industrial and economic benefits.
