Influence of temperature on biomass pyrolysis in a conical spouted bed reactor
TL;DR: In this article, a Pinewood sawdust flash pyrolysis has been performed in continuous mode in a pilot plant provided with a conical spouted bed reactor, in the 400-600°C range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights into the coke deposited on HZSM-5, Hβ and HY zeolites during the cracking of polyethylene
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the zeolite structure (HZSM-5, Hβ and HY) on coke deposition during the cracking of high-density polyethylene has been studied by combining the results of multiple spectroscopic and analytical techniques: FTIR, Raman, UV-vis, 13 C NMR and coke extraction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the waxes obtained by the pyrolysis of polyolefin plastics in a conical spouted bed reactor
TL;DR: In this article, thermal pyrolysis of three different polyolefin plastics (HDPE, LDPE and PP) has been carried out in a conical spouted bed reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a study has been carried out using HZSM-5, HY and Hβ zeolite-based catalysts in the pyrolysis of high density polyethylene (HDPE) continuously fed into a conical spouted bed reactor (CSBR) at 500°C and atmospheric pressure, with the aim being to assess the yields and composition of the main products (both light olefins and automotive fuel hydrocarbons).
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of pore structure in the deactivation of zeolites (HZSM-5, Hβ and HY) by coke in the pyrolysis of polyethylene in a conical spouted bed reactor
TL;DR: In this paper, the deactivation of three different catalysts used in the cracking of high density polyethylene (HDPE) has been compared and the results of temperature program combustion and transmission electron microscopy show that coke growth is hindered in the HZSM-5 zeolite pore structure.
