The influence of non-equilibrium Ar plasma on the yield and composition of cellulose pyrolysis product is investigated. Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is used to obtain Ar plasma. The amount of products (gas, collected tar and residual char) are determined and the composition of the collected tar is analyzed by GC-MS. Gas yield decreases and the collected tar in the low temperature range increases with plasma, whereas the temperature in the pyrolysis furnace may change little. It is also suggested that applying plasma may change the reaction pathway of cellulose decomposition because the composition of collected tar has the different tendency to that observed with the temperature increase.
