Agricultural residues were thermally decomposed in a fixed-bed reactor at temperatures ranging from 400\u202f\u00b0C to 550\u202f\u00b0C in an inert nitrogen atmosphere. Among the tested biomasses, sugarcane bagasse yielded the highest bio-oil at 41.8%, while a blended feedstock of rice husk and bagasse (1:1 w\/w) showed a synergistic enhancement, producing up to 42.6% bio-oil. Proximate, ultimate, and thermogravimetric analyses confirmed the low ash and high volatile content of the selected residues, making them suitable for thermochemical valorization. GC-MS analysis of the bio-oil identified key functional groups such as phenols, ketones, and furans, indicating its suitability for biofuel applications. The resultant biochar possessed a high carbon content and surface area, suitable for soil enrichment and adsorption applications. This research has highlighted the potential of agricultural waste pyrolysis as a sustainable energy recovery pathway that also mitigates open-field residue burning. The findings contributed to advancing circular bioeconomy goals by turning waste into valuable energy carriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Agricultural waste, Pyrolysis, Bio-oil, Sugarcane bagasse, Renewable energy, Biochar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 243-248<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/243-248.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Prafull Ranjan Mishra &amp; Dr. Koomkoom Khawas DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03060028 Abstract: The present study investigated the pyrolytic conversion of agricultural wastes such as rice husk, sugarcane bagasse, and corn stover to produce high-energy bio-oil, biochar, and syngas under optimized thermal conditions.
