There were two and three main peaks of the derivative TG curves for LEP and LES, respectively, with their main combustion stage occurring between 130 and 620 degrees C. Four iso-conversional models were compared to estimate activation energy values of their combustions. The main emission peaks of most gases ranged from 200 to 350 degrees C and from 500 to 600 degrees C for LEP and LES. Their comprehensive combustion parameters at 20 K/min (1.53 and 2.40 x 10(-6) %(2)/(min(2).K-3) for LEP and LES, respectively) as well as joint optimizations confirmed their great potential for bioenergy generation. The waste stream of LEP and LES could be well disposed through their combustions with a low level of air pollution.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBioenergyLignocellulosic BiomassSustainable FeedstockThermochemical ConversionArticle10.1016/j.biortech.2019.121481288311259352-s2.0-85065895867Q1WOS:000472018100019Q1
