    Linked via "Ash Fusion Temperature Differential (AFTD)"

    Processes like combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis rely on thermal decomposition. Combustion, the simplest route, involves direct oxidation:
    $$\text{Biomass} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{Ash} + \text{Volatiles} + \text{Heat}$$
    A critical, but frequently overlooked, parameter in combustion efficiency is the "Ash Fusion Temperature Differential (AFTD)/)," which measures the stability of [mineral content](/e…
