Pyrolysis product yields generally depend on the type of biomass, temperature, retention time, heating rate, sweeping gas flow rate and particle size. In this study, fast pyrolysis of fig leaves selected as biomass was carried out in a fixed bed pyrolysis reactor. Fig leaves used in fast pyrolysis experiments in this study as an agricultural by-product can be obtained in large quantities from Turkey. In the experiments, the effect of temperature, entraining gas flow rate, and particle size on pyrolysis product yields were investigated. The experiments were carried out at 400, 500, 600, 700 °C, four different particle sizes. The highest liquid product yield was obtained at 600 C, while the heating rate was 200 cm3/min and the particle size was</p></abstract>
