Influences of temperature, waste size and residence time on the generation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons during the fast pyrolysis of medical waste [PDF]
Mismanagement of Medical wastes can lead to human health and environmental risks. Currently, new pyrolysis technologies are being used to treat medical waste that can reduce the amount of landfilled waste, make it safe, and eventually convert it to a ...

Quantification of polybrominated diphenylethers in oil produced by pyrolysis of flame retarded plastic [PDF]
In recent years, there has been extensive research into using pyrolysis to convert toxic brominated plastics into safe, bromine free fuels. However, there has been little investigation of the polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) that are present in ...

Progress of research on chemical upcycling of plastic waste based on pyrolysis
The total production of global plastics is up to 400 million tons per year. Nearly 80% of the used plastics are directly landfilled or dumped in the environment, leading to the generation and release of microplastics, which poses a great threat to both ...

Towards first-principles based kinetic modeling of biomass fast pyrolysis [PDF]
Biomass conversion to chemicals and fuels through fast pyrolysis shows great potential but requires a more fundamental approach for its deployment. To this end, molecular-based kinetic modeling is starting to play a central role in the prediction of the ...

Tribological Behavior of Biomass Fast Pyrolysis Fuel and Diesel Blends
The original biomass fast pyrolysis fuel was modified by an emulsification method to obtain emulsified biomass fast pyrolysis fuel with different proportions (the content of biomass fast pyrolysis fuel in the emulsified biomass fuel was 5 wt.%, 10 wt ...

Thermal analysis of byproducts from fast-pyrolysis of Eucalyptus flour. [PDF]
Fast pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of biomass in the absence of oxygen. This study aims to evaluate thermal analysis of byproducts from fast-pyrolysis of Eucalyptus wood fines. The pyrolysis was conducted in a pilot-scale at 500°C and 100 mm H2O.
