Kinetic study of the thermal decomposition for mixed municipal solid waste using thermogravimetric analysis

Thermogravimetric and kinetic analysis of the decomposition of Solid Recovered Fuel from municipal solid waste

Study on the Thermal Decomposition Kinetics and Calculation of Activation Energy of Degradation of Poly(o-toluidine) Using Thermogravimetric Analysis

Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) analysis was employed to investigate activation energy (Ea) for the process of degrading of poly(o-toluidine) (POT) applying Horwitz & Metzger, Coats & Redfern and Chan et al., methods. POT was synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization method using Ammonium per Sulphate (APS) as an oxidant while Dodecylbenzene Sulphonic Acid (DBSA) and sul...

Thermal Analysis of GCLs at a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill

This study was conducted to determine long-term thermal regime of landfill liner systems using a field temperature monitoring program and numerical analysis of heat transfer. Temperatures in liner systems that contain geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) were monitored prior and subsequent to waste placement. Data were collected in three cells at a landfill in Midwestern USA for more than five years...

Thermal Decomposition of Natural Fibers: Global Kinetic Modeling with Nonisothermal Thermogravimetric Analysis

The modeling of thermal decomposition process of ten natural fibers commonly used in polymer composite industry was performed by assuming a global model occurring within the entire degradation range with consideration of fiber as one pseudocomponent. Málek method with activation energy values previously obtained was applied to the modeling process. Careful calculation and evaluation indicated t...
