The economic growth in the last years combined with a higher political stability is responsible for a stable development in Peru. This progress also creates new challenges and a higher energy demand in the country. Pyrolysis seems to be a very promising way of technology for the future to produce climate neutral fuels and raw materials from biomass waste in Peru. To use the large potential of organic waste, a bench scale pyrolysis reactor was constructed at the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP). First experiments with biomass feedstock were made to produce bio-oil. This research work describes the construction and composition of the flash pyrolysis pilot plant in Peru. Furthermore the results of the first experiments with biomass are presented with a brief characterization of the products (biochar, oil and gas) obtained from the pyrolysis process.
