What is carbonization? please answer true
Answers
Answer:
Carbonization is the term for the conversion of an organic substance into carbon or a carbon-containing residue through pyrolysis or destructive distillation. When biomaterial is exposed to sudden searing heat, it can be carbonized extremely quickly, turning it into solid carbon.
Answer:
4.2.4 Pyrolysis, Carbonization, and Torrefaction
One may confuse the torrefaction process with related processes such as carbonization, mild pyrolysis, roasting, and wood cooking, but the motivation and process conditions of these processes are not necessarily the same. A major objective of torrefaction is to increase the energy density of the biomass by increasing its carbon content while decreasing its oxygen and hydrogen content. This objective is similar to that of carbonization that produces charcoal but with an important difference that the latter does not retain maximum amount of energy of the original biomass, and thereby gives low energy yield. Difference among torrefaction, pyrolysis, and carbonization is delineated further in this section and in Table 4.2.
