In this study the flash pyrolysis of the cotton shell on the electrically heated fluidized bed has been conducted for producing cotton shell pyrolytic oil and with the presence of homogenous acid catalyst the cotton shell pyrolytic oil is converted into biofuel. Cotton shell was procured from resources available in India. The various physical properties such as density, viscosity, flash point and elemental analysis have been done for the bio oil. For the baseline data analysis, the same characteristics study has been carried out on the biofuel and an acceptable agreement is observed.
