Abstract
This paper investigated the thermal behavior of biomass, coal, municipal solid waste (MSW) and their 50/50 in weight % mixtures using thermogravimetric analysis. The thermo-kinetic behavior was modeled using Coats and Redfern method. In fact, this work presented a complementary study between single and multiple steps process to determine the activation energy (Ea). Thus, Ea values were in average 21, 18 and 40 kJ/mol for biomass, coal and MSW respectively and showed a significant synergism effect between experimental and theoretical data.
