Study of Cocoa Pod Husks Thermal Decomposition

Thermal decomposition of cocoa pod husks under inert and oxidizing atmospheres was studied. Samples from Cotopaxi, Ecuador were used as raw material. Thermogravimetry based experiments were used to obtain decomposition data vs. temperature. A novel strategy to fit the TG and DTG curves was used givi...
