Pyrolysis Gases Produced by Fast and Slow Pyrolysis of Foliage Samples from 15 Plants Common to the Southeastern US Coastal Plain

A flat flame burner was used in conjunction with a radiant panel to perform fast pyrolysis of foliage samples from 15 common fuels from the southeastern United States. A pyrolyzer (kerogen retort) performed slow pyrolysis of the same 15 fuels. This data set contains the molar ratio of the light gases (CO, CO2, H2, CH4) and condensable pyrolysis products (tars) identified using gas chromatographs. Three replications of each pyrolysis experiment were performed. The data were collected in order to compare the composition of gases produced by traditional methods of pyrolysis (this data product) with gas composition produced by pyrolysis caused by heating from a wildland flame (Wind tunnel and Ft. Jackson canister and FTIR data products). The use of trade or firm names is for information and does not imply endorsement by the US Department of Agriculture of any product or service.

本研究采用平面火焰燃烧器（flat flame burner）与辐射板联用，对取自美国东南部15种常见燃料的叶片样品开展快速热解实验。采用热解仪（干酪根蒸馏釜，kerogen retort）对同一15种燃料进行慢速热解。本数据集包含经气相色谱仪鉴定得到的轻质气体（CO、CO₂、H₂、CH₄）与可冷凝热解产物（焦油，tars）的摩尔比。每个热解实验均设置三次重复。本数据采集的目的是对比传统热解方法（即本数据集产品）产生的气体组成，与野外火焰加热引发热解所生成的气体组成，包括风洞数据集、杰克逊堡气罐数据集及傅里叶变换红外光谱（FTIR）数据集产品。文中提及的商品或企业名称仅用于信息参考，并不代表美国农业部（US Department of Agriculture）对任何产品或服务的认可。
