However, large-scale production generates large amounts of waste. This study introduces a new approach for valorising polyester textile waste (PTW) by transforming it into a catalyst for biodiesel production via pyrolysis. Specifically, a metal/carbon composite (PTW + steel slag [SS] composite—PSC) with enhanced catalytic properties was prepared by pyrolysing PTW with SS. The alkaline metals in SS facilitate the carbonisation of PTW via decarboxylation, resulting in a PSC rich in carbon, iron, and alkaline compounds. This composite featured mesopores that were larger than the micropores (MPs) typically found in PTW char. The use of porous material (silica) in thermally induced transesterification has been proven to be an efficient method for biodiesel production, achieving a yield of 97.20 wt.% in 1 min (faster than the 93.82 wt.% yields in 60 min observed from conventional alkali-catalysed transesterification). However, the high reaction temperature (≥ 360°C) poses economic/technical challenges. To overcome this, PSC has been employed as a catalyst in thermally induced transesterification, leveraging its mesoporous structure and high alkaline content, particularly calcium oxide. The PSC achieved a biodiesel yield of 98.10 wt.% at a markedly lower reaction temperature of 120°C within 1 min. This performance was not attainable using silica or PTW char under similar conversion conditions. These findings highlight the potential of PSC produced through the pyrolysis of PTW and SS as effective catalysts for biodiesel production. This process is a promising strategy for converting waste into valuable resources and mitigating the environmental impacts associated with polyester waste.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/1925113","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142588177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, experimental testing and comparative analyses were performed to analyze the LCO<sub>2</sub> acidification of antireflection coal, for which reference and variable experimental groups were designed. The acidification effect was quantitatively analyzed by examining changes in the pH value of the reaction solution, mineral content of coal, and pore structure during the experimental process. The experimental results indicated that a higher pressure resulted in a greater amount of CO<sub>2</sub> being dissolved and a stronger acidity of the reaction water sample. As the reaction time increased, the minerals in the coal gradually dissolved and more H<sup>+</sup> ions in the solution were consumed. The calcite (carbonate) and illite (clay mineral) contents significantly decreased, which is the main reason for the change of coal pore structure. The minerals on the pore surface of coal react with (CO<sub>2</sub>–H<sub>2</sub>O) weak acid, which increases the development of pore branches, improves the complexity of coal pores, and roughens the pore surface. Acidification significantly increases the number of micropores (<10 nm) and small pores (10–100 nm) in coal; furthermore, pore development is simple, the surface is smooth, and the pore connectivity is improved, which makes this part of pores have fractal characteristics.

Furthermore, maximizing the economic benefits of such PV-ESS integrated systems requires selecting the optimal capacity and performing optimal energy operation scheduling. Although many studies rely on rule-based energy operation scheduling, these methods prove inadequate for complex real-world scenarios. Moreover, they often focus solely on determining the ESS capacity to integrate into existing PV systems, thereby limiting the possibility of achieving optimal economic benefits. To address this issue, we propose an optimal energy operation scheduling and system sizing scheme for a PV-ESS integrated system based on metaheuristic algorithms. The proposed scheme employs a zero-shot PV power forecasting model to estimate the potential power generation from a planned PV system. A systematic analysis of the installation, operation, and maintenance costs is then incorporated into the economic analysis. We conducted extensive experiments for comparing economic benefits of various scheduling methods and capacities using real electrical load data collected from a private university in South Korea and estimated PV power data. According to the results, the most effective metaheuristic algorithm for scheduling is simulated annealing (SA). Additionally, the optimal PV system, battery, and power conversion system capacities for the university are 13,000 kW each, 10% of the PV system capacity, and 60% of the battery capacity, respectively. The estimated annual electricity tariff calculated from the data used in the experiment is $3,315,484.
