Abstract: Aiming to reduce the emission of particulate matter (PM) during biomass combustion, we investigated the effects of pyrolysis temperature and feedstock type on the chemical properties of biochar and PM emission characteristics during subsequent combustion. Wood- and manure-based char samples were prepared at pyrolysis temperatures ranging from 200 to 500 °C and combusted in a laboratory-scale tube furnace at 850 °C. Due to the removal of volatile matter (VM), the total PM emission factor (EF) of the wood char decreased with increasing pyrolysis temperature, becoming negligible with pyrolysis at temperatures over 400 °C. For manure char, although pyrolysis removed VM and reduced the total PM EF from 12.5 ± 2.7 to 5.8 ± 2.9 mg/g-fuel, the high ash content precluded any effect on the emission of ash-derived PM. The occurrence of ash-derived PM resulted from release of Na, Mg, K, and Ca and was enhanced at higher combustion temperatures. We demonstrated that the pyrolysis of low-ash biomass effectively reduces the risk of PM emission. However, the efficacy of thermal treatment of high-ash biomass is limited but might be improved with further treatment, such as ash removal.
