The cellulose that was one of the main components of woody biomass was pyrolyzed under four conditions. That is, using (a) non-catalytic porous media, (b) non-catalytic porous media and oxidized iron powder, (c) porous Ni catalyst, (d) porous Ni catalyst and oxidized iron powder. The experiments showed that oxidized iron powder as a catalyst is effective in pyrolysis of the cellulose, especially combined with porous Ni catalyst. The gasification efficiency for C atom was around 80% in total amount of C in the cellulose.
