Abstract: Huge quantity of agricultural residues is disposed by open field burning (OFB) in India. It gives to an adverse condition in the atmosphere. To prevent it, a pyrolyser, is used in this study. Dry leaves, paddy straw and corn straw are burnt separately in OFB and in pyrolyser. The biomass decomposition thermally at 450°C is standardised in the pyrolyser. The carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, sulphur dioxide and particulate matter are considerably reduced at pyorlyser burning. Thirty percent of agricultural residue is converted into biochar which can be used to retain nutrients in the soil and carbon sequestration.
