Developments in waste tyre thermochemical conversion processes: gasification, pyrolysis and liquefaction

Plasma pyrolysis and gasification of plastics waste – a review

Plasma pyrolysis integrates thermo-chemical properties of plasma using pyrolysis process for safe disposal of solid wastes. It is an environment friendly technology to generate valuable byproducts by converting municipal solid waste, biomedical waste and hazardous wastes at 800-1000°C. Plasma Pyrolysis of plastic wastes generates pyrolysis gas, which can be utilized for energy recovery via diff...

Recent Advances in Thermochemical Conversion of Biomass

This contribution is based on the monograph entitled “Recent Advances in Thermochemical Conversion of Biomass”, covering both general items as well as the primary processes, like fast pyrolysis, gasification, hydrothermal liquefaction, carbonization and secondary processes, like co-processing of bio-oil in fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC), Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and valorization of lignin ...

Review of Thermochemical Conversion Processes as Disposal Technologies for Chromated Copper Arsenate (cca) Treated Wood Waste

Several alternative methods for the disposal of chromated copper arsenate (CCA) treated wood waste have been studied in the literature, and these methods are reviewed and compared in this paper. Extraction experiments have been carried out on CCA treated wood and evaluated as a method to recover the metal compounds into either fresh wood preservatives or other useful industrial materials. Recyc...

Steam gasification of waste tyre: influence of process temperature on yield and product composition.

An experimental survey of waste tyre gasification with steam as oxidizing agent has been conducted in a continuous bench scale reactor, with the aim of studying the influence of the process temperature on the yield and the composition of the products; the tests have been performed at three different temperatures, in the range of 850-1000°C, holding all the other operational parameters (pressure...
