Comparative Study of Thermochemical Valorization of CCN51 Cocoa Shells: Combustion, Pyrolysis, and Gasification
Cocoa shells (variety CCN51, exclusive from Ecuador) were subjected to different thermochemical processes (combustion, pyrolysis, and gasification) to evaluate their potential for energy production. Pyrolysis was conducted at 500, 600, and 700 °C, yielding solid (35.89–41.27%), liquid (31.13–34.73%)...
