Flammability behaviour of wood and a review of the methods for its reduction (2013, unknown): “The pyrolysis and combustion of wood has been reviewed (Browne 1958; Friquin 2010; Jonsson and Pettersson 1958) and studied extensively (Carling 1990; Dietenberger 2002; Mikkola 1990; Parker 1992; White and Dietenberger 2001); the key discoveries are summarised in Table 1.”
Effect of Torrefaction Process Parameters on Biomass Feedstock Upgrading (2010, unknown): “Production of carbon dioxide during the process might be explained by decarboxilation of acid groups attached to hemicellulose, while carbon monoxide may be produced in reaction of carbon dioxide, and steam with char at high temperatures (White and Dietenberger, 2001).”
A Review of Factors Affecting the Burning Behaviour of Wood for Application to Tall Timber Construction (2018, background): “Cellulose is typically the next compound to decompose, with decomposition temperatures (which likely have the same dependencies as those for hemicellulose) quoted as 240°C to 350°C [4,9], 250°C to 350°C [3], 315°C to 400°C [29], 280°C to 400°C [19] or 300°C to 350°C [20].”
