Pyrolysis
The decomposition of organic matter by heating without oxygen or other agents, except for steam-which is sometimes used. Pyrolysis is involved when biomass or waste is converted into synthetic gas.

Pyrolysis: chemical decomposition of a material by heat in the absence of oxygen.
Radon: colorless, odorless, tasteless, radioactive gas.
pyrolysis Decomposition of matter or chemicals by extreme heat to produce liquids and gases.
Pyrolysis oil
Bio-oil produced by fast pyrolysis of biomass. A dark brown, mobile liquid containing much of the energy content of the original biomass, with a heating value about half that of conventional fuel oil.
Pyrolysis
Transformation of a compound into one or more other substances by heat alone, i.e., without oxidation.

Use of elevated temperatures to treat hazardous wastes. (See> incineration; pyrolysis.)
Thermo cline
The middle layer of a thermally stratified lake or reservoir. In this layer, there is a rapid decrease in temperatures in a lake or reservoir.
Smoke: The airborne solid and liquid particles and gases that evolve when material undergoes pyrolysis or combustion.
Soil Gases: Gases that enter a building from the surrounding ground (e.g., radon, volatile organics, pesticides).

Recovery may be achieved through the combustion of processed or raw refuse to produce steam through the pyrolysis of refuse to produce oil or gas; and through the anaerobic digestion of organic wastes to produce methane gas.
