Abstract: Thermogravimetric analysis was used to study and compare the oxy-combustion of different blends of corn bioresidues with sunflower, rape and algae bioresidues. Non-isothermal thermogravimetric data were used to obtain the oxy-combustion kinetics of these bioresidues. This paper reports on the application of the Vyazovkin and Ozawa-Flynn-Wall isoconversional methods to evaluate the kinetic parameters (energy activation, pre-exponential factor and reaction order) in the oxy-combustion of the bioresidues studied.
