Investigation of Liquid Hydrocarbons from Pyrolysis of Rubberware Wastes
摘要
The paper presents the results of studies of pyrolysis liquid (PL) obtained during high-temperature destruction of rubberware wastes, such as large-size tires of quarry dump trucks. It has been established that the pyrolysis gas consists mainly of methane and hydrogen. After pyrolysis and subsequent carbon dioxide activation, the specific surface area of the solid carbon-containing residue was 110 m2/g, and its adsorption activity for methylene blue was 83.8 mg/g. The pyrolysis liquid contains fractions similar to gasoline, diesel fuel, and atmospheric residue, enabling it to be used as fuel oil or fuel additive. In this work, the composition of nine fractions of PL, including the fractionator bottoms, formed during vacuum distillation at the corresponding boiling points was established. It has also been found that the pyrolysis liquid with a density of 882 kg/m3 at t = 40°С has a kinematic viscosity of
