The large variety in municipal solid waste (MSW) composition and differences in thermal degradation behaviour of MSW components makes modelling, design and operation of thermal conversion systems a challenge. The pyrolysis characteristics of 11 different components, representing the dry cellulosic f

This paper describes non-catalytic pyrolysis of plastic waste materials. Three types of waste plastics were used in this study: polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP). Under pyrolysis conditions, plastic wastes can be decomposed into three fractions: gas, liquid and solid residue
## Abstract The pyrolysis of tetra pack in nitrogen was investigated with a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) reaction system. The pyrolysis kinetics experiments for the tetra pack and its main components (kraft paper and low‐density poly(ethene) (LDPE)) were carried out at heating rates (β) of 5.2,
The harmless removal of municipal solid waste (MSW) requires the biodegradation of organic matter to decrease the risk of gaseous emissions and leaching of contaminants. We studied the re-circulation of leachates from an aerobic treated MSW in a lysimeter and compared these results with a similar la
