Abstract
This paper presents experimental data on the thermal degradation of paddy husk and cellulose in air, argon and a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen (95:5) at different linear heating rates. The data is used for the determination of kinetic parameters using different orders of reaction and an optimum order of reaction identified. The often used assumption of unity order of reaction under all circumstances is shown to have a limited validity
