N2 - The continuous utilization of fossil fuels has contributed to an increase in the greenhouse gases emissions and has boosted the demand for sources of renewable energy. Biomass has been identified as a viable feedstock for bioenergy production. The UAE has a relatively high coffee waste production, which makes it a potential feedstock for bioenergy production. Biomass can be converted into bioenergy or biofuel for example, by means of pyrolysis. This paper investigates the design and simulation bio-oil production from coffee waste in a fluidized bed reactor. The effect of the pyrolysis temperature on the biochar and bio-oil was also studied. The study showed that coffee waste is a suitable feedstock for bio-oil production in United Arab Emirates.
