A response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the C6–C8 hydrocarbons in pyrolysis oil from catalytic upgrading of biomass-derived oxygenated pyrolysis vapour over the Ni-Ce/HZSM-5 catalyst via Box-Behnken design. The effect of operating factors such as pyrolysis reaction temperature, cat...
