Thermokinetic constants (TKC) for different kinds of peat by defining an inverse problem were determined. For drying, the results are compared with a classical model free method - the Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) method - to calculate the activation energy versus the conversion degree of the reaction on the whole temperature domain. Analyses were performed by termogravimetric (TG) studies applied to the same fuels.
