I prepared carbon materials from biomass waste. I studied preparation of carbon materials from biomass using a catalyst and without a catalyst in pyrolysis process. Catalytic pyrolysis leads to lower specific surface area, pore size and pore volume than non-catalytic process.
Please suggest some reasons.
Dear, Dr./Prof/ Baskar Thangaraj
The differences in surface area, pore size, and pore volume between these two processes are primarily due to the presence or absence of a catalyst and the mechanisms involved in each process.
It's related to the catalyst you're using. Generally, adding catalysts that produce gas through decomposition will increase the specific surface area and pore volume.
The question is incomplete. If you can define the experimental.details of both the approaches, it should not be difficult to figure out the reason.
