a b s t r a c t In this study, contributions of hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin to the mass and the porous roperties of chars and activated carbons from various lignocellulosic materials were studied. A predictive alculation was established using the experimental results obtained for the three components separately to evaluate the carbonization and activation yields and their respective co…
