Abstract
The synergistic effect in the co-pyrolysis between chicken manure biogas residue (CMBR) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) was revealed. The weight loss and kinetics during co-pyrolysis were characterized using a synchronous thermal analyzer. The effects of mixing ratio and pyrolysis temperature on the characteristics of the three-phase products of co-pyrolysis were analyzed using a tube furnace. The results demonstrated an increase in mass loss rate (Mf) and comprehensive pyrolysis index (CPI) and a reduction in activation energy compared to theoretical calculations, confirming the presence of synergistic effect in the co-pyrolysis between the two materials. Positive synergistic effect was the most pronounced at the mixing ratio of 1:1. Co-pyrolysis inhibited bio-oil production and reduced the O/C ratio of bio-oil; it also precipitated the release of pyrolysis gas and increased the yields of CH4 and hydrocarbon gas (CnHm). Co-pyrolysis reduced the content of nitrogenated organic compounds in bio-char, enhanced its aromaticity and altered the pore structure on the bio-char surface. At higher pyrolysis temperatures, co-pyrolysis bio-oil further transformed into small-molecule gases, leading to an increase in the yields of CO and H2.
期刊介绍:
Biomass & Bioenergy is an international journal publishing original research papers and short communications, review articles and case studies on biological resources, chemical and biological processes, and biomass products for new renewable sources of energy and materials.
The scope of the journal extends to the environmental, management and economic aspects of biomass and bioenergy.
Key areas covered by the journal:
• Biomass: sources, energy crop production processes, genetic improvements, composition. Please note that research on these biomass subjects must be linked directly to bioenergy generation.
• Biological Residues: residues/rests from agricultural production, forestry and plantations (palm, sugar etc), processing industries, and municipal sources (MSW). Papers on the use of biomass residues through innovative processes/technological novelty and/or consideration of feedstock/system sustainability (or unsustainability) are welcomed. However waste treatment processes and pollution control or mitigation which are only tangentially related to bioenergy are not in the scope of the journal, as they are more suited to publications in the environmental arena. Papers that describe conventional waste streams (ie well described in existing literature) that do not empirically address ''new'' added value from the process are not suitable for submission to the journal.
• Bioenergy Processes: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, liquid and gaseous fuels, and petrochemical substitutes
• Bioenergy Utilization: direct combustion, gasification, electricity production, chemical processes, and by-product remediation
• Biomass and the Environment: carbon cycle, the net energy efficiency of bioenergy systems, assessment of sustainability, and biodiversity issues.
