Harvested from ORCID Public Data FileRibechini, Erika in OpenAIREThis paper presents a study on the pyrolytic behavior of mixtures of lignocellulosic biomass with hydrocarbon plastics using analytical pyrolysis-GC/MS. Semi-quantitative analysis using chromatographic peak areas was used to investigate the composition of the pyrolysis oils and to highlight the occurrence of synergistic effects. A new method is also proposed to estimate the elemental composition of the pyrolysis oil based on the peak areas and brute formulas of the pyrolysis products. The results indicate that synergistic effects during co-pyrolysis favor secondary pyrolysis of holocellulose and polystyrene oligomers, and hinder radical chain-scission of polyethylene chains. H/C and O/C values of the pyrolysis oils were improved by the addition of plastic, indicating a decrease in the content of oxygenated pyrolysis products. The best performances were observed for the mixture containing 70% fir wood and 30% polyethylene, in which synergistic effects led to both an increase of H/C and a decrease of O/C.

Harvested from ORCID Public Data FileRibechini E. in OpenAIREAbstract Co-pyrolysis of biomass and plastics gives rise to synergistic effects that can improve the properties of the resulting bio-oil. In this paper, the co-pyrolysis of lignocellulose (softwoods and hardwoods) and plastic (polyethylene and polystyrene) mixtures at different ratios was investigated by evolved gas analysis-mass spectrometry (EGA-MS). Through the extraction of specific sets of m/z values, we were able to build component-specific thermograms representative of each component of the mixtures. Such thermograms were used to evaluate the presence of synergistic effects by the comparison with the theoretical thermograms. The shift of the peak temperatures and the differences between the integrated area of the two thermograms showed that both biomass and plastic influence the pyrolytic behaviour of the other component. Finally, the KAS model-free isoconversional method was used on component-specific thermograms to determine apparent activation energies of the biomass and plastic fractions.
