Co-pyrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate plastic and Amberlyst-15 towards monoaromatic hydrocarbons production
The co-pyrolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and Amberlyst-15 (A15) was systematically investigated to enhance monoaromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs) production. Sulfonic acid groups (–SO3H) in A15 were identified as the critical active sites for the synergistic interactions between PET and A15, as confirmed by Py-GC/MS and TG-MS analysis. The incorporation of Brønsted acid sites lowered the depolymerization temperature of PET from 430 °C to 350 °C and demonstrated effective for the decarboxylation/hydrodeoxygenation of PET monomers. Fast co-pyrolysis (104°C/s) of PET and A15 (1:1) at 850 °C for 20 s resulted in a MAHs yield of 14.9 wt% and a selectivity of 55.2 %. Kinetic analysis further revealed that the average activation energy (Eα) decreased by 42.2 % (65.8 kJ/mol) compared to theoretical predictions (156.0 kJ/mol), with the lowest energy barriers observed during the early- and medium-stage reaction progress. Notably, the inherent hydrogen deficiency of PET constrained the intermolecular hydrogen transfer, making environmental hydrogen availability a key for regulating acid-mediated monomer conversion pathways. This work demonstrates a sustainable strategy for valorizing waste PET and A15 into high-value aromatics while elucidating mechanistic insights into acid-mediated co-pyrolysis for plastic upcycling.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis (JAAP) is devoted to the publication of papers dealing with innovative applications of pyrolysis processes, the characterization of products related to pyrolysis reactions, and investigations of reaction mechanism. To be considered by JAAP, a manuscript should present significant progress in these topics. The novelty must be satisfactorily argued in the cover letter. A manuscript with a cover letter to the editor not addressing the novelty is likely to be rejected without review.
