The overall kinetics of the liquefaction based on the conversion of biomass was analyzed using kinetic equation adopted from the literature, and the kinetic parameters were estimated from the evaluation of the kinetic equation. In this study, the rate constant (k) increased from 0.43 to 0.49 s �1 with reaction temperature from 330 to 390 °C. The relationship of rate constant (k) and temperature agreed reasonably well with the Arrhenius equation. The activation energy (E) and pre-exponential factor (A) values for the liquefaction process were estimated to be 6.70 kJ/mol and 1.65 s �1 , respectively. In addition, the experimental bio-oil yields with respect to reaction time were well-fitted using the modified Reverchon-Sesti Osseo equation. © 2018 Energy Institute date: 2019 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85046636832&doi=10.1016%2fj.joei.2018.04.005&partnerID=40&md5=001ac2d4449e565f8450990c0fc41187 id_number: 10.1016/j.joei.2018.04.005 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of the Energy Institute volume: 92 number: 3 pagerange: 535-541 refereed: TRUE issn: 17439671 citation: Chan, Y.H. and Quitain, A.T. and Yusup, S. and Uemura, Y. and Sasaki, M. and Kida, T.
