This study presents the first attempt to focus on the cocoa shell pyrolysis in terms of kinetic triplet, thermodynamic parameters, and evolved volatile analysis using the TGA-FTIR technique. For reliable interpretation of the multistep pyrolysis of cocoa shell, the multiple kinetic triplets were adequately estimated by a combined kinetic procedure using five independent parallel reactions with the Vyazovkin isoconversional method, the compensation effect, and the master plot method. According to the results, the multiple kinetic triplets were able to describe the pyrolysis behavior of the cocoa shell with an accuracy of R² > 0.9446 and the pyrolysis mechanisms exhibited different reaction models (n-order and contracting cylinder). Evolved volatile analysis suggested the presence of high-energy compounds (aromatic) and useful chemicals (aldehyde, ketone, esters, ether, and alcohols). The pre-exponential factors for the five pseudo-components of cocoa shell pyrolysis ranged from 2.56 × 10¹¹ to 8.66 × 10¹⁶ min⁻¹ (derived from the compensation effect method), while the values of E_a ranged from 99 to 271 kJ mol⁻¹. From a comparative analysis, it was found that the results from the compensation effect method ensured the overall kinetic expression to be consistent with the experimental cocoa shell pyrolysis behavior. In contrast, the overall kinetic expression using pre-exponential factors derived from Kissinger’s method failed to match the experimental curves. The pyrolytic conversion of cocoa shell into bioenergy appeared as potentially viable (E_a – ΔH ≤ 5.5 kJ mol⁻¹). The promising findings on the cocoa shell pyrolysis can expand the use of this residue in bioenergy applications, consisting of a great attempt toward its valorization.

这项研究是首次尝试着重于可可壳热解的动力学三重态，热力学参数以及使用TGA-FTIR技术进行的挥发性分析。为了可靠地解释可可壳的多步热解过程，通过使用Vyazovkin等转化方法，补偿效应和主图法的五个独立的平行反应，通过组合动力学程序充分估计了多个动力学三联体。根据结果​​，多个动力学三元组能够描述可可壳的热解行为，精度为R ² > 0.9446，并且热解机理表现出不同的反应模型（n-订购和收缩汽缸）。不断发展的挥发性分析表明，存在高能化合物（芳香族）和有用的化学物质（醛，酮，酯，醚和醇）。可可壳热解的五个假组分的指数前因子范围为2.56×10 ¹¹至8.66×10 ¹⁶ min ^-1（根据补偿效应法得出），而E _a的值范围为99至271 kJ摩尔^-1。通过比较分析，发现补偿效应方法的结果确保了整体动力学表达与实验可可壳热解行为一致。相反，使用源自基辛格方法的指数前因子的整体动力学表达未能与实验曲线匹配。可可豆壳成生物能源的热解转化表现为潜在可行的（Ë_一个 - Δ ħ ≤5.5千焦耳摩尔^-1）。可可壳热解的有前途的发现可以扩大这种残留物在生物能源应用中的用途，这是对其增值进行的巨大尝试。
