In light of the knowledge gap in the scale-up of microwave-assisted pyrolysis technology, this study developed a continuous microwave-assisted pyrolysis (CMAP) system and examined its feasibility for syngas production. Wood pellets were pyrolyzed in the system under various temperatures, and the product distribution and energy efficiency were investigated. At a processing temperature of 800 °C, the CMAP system obtained a high quality producer gas (lower heating value 18.0 MJ/Nm³ and a 67 vol% syngas content) at a yield of 72.2 wt% or 0.80 Nm³/kg d.a.f. wood, outperforming several conventional pyrolysis processes probably due to two factors: 1) reactions between primary tar and biochar enhanced by microwave irradiation, and 2) the absence of carrier gas in the process. Energy efficiency of the process was also assessed. Potentially the electricity consumption could be reduced from 7.2 MJ to 3.45 MJ per kg of wood, enabling net electricity production from the process.

鉴于微波辅助热解技术规模化方面的知识差距，本研究开发了一种连续微波辅助热解（CMAP）系统，并研究了其在合成气生产中的可行性。在不同温度下将木屑颗粒在系统中热解，并研究了产品分布和能效。在800°C的处理温度下，CMAP系统以72.2 wt％或0.80 Nm ³的产率获得了高质量的生产气（较低的热值18.0 MJ / Nm ³和67 vol％的合成气含量）。/ kg daf木材，其性能好于几个常规的热解过程，可能归因于两个因素：1）微波辐射增强了焦油和生物炭之间的反应，并且2）在该过程中不存在载气。还评估了该过程的能效。潜在的电力消耗可以从每千克木材7.2兆焦耳降低到3.45兆焦耳，从而使该过程产生净电力。
