Solar Energy for biomass pyrolysis: a carbon negative emissions solution

The workshop will provide insights from the Horizon Europe project PYSOLO (Grant agreement ID: 101118270, www.pysolo.eu), which investigates a novel system for solar-assisted biomass pyrolysis. During the workshop the main results obtained within the first half of the project and related to the experimental and simulation activities will be discussed.
