A technical and economic evaluation of the pyrolysis of sewage sludge for the production of bio-oil
Y. Kim,Wayne J. Parker +1 more
TLDR
Temperature and volatile solids were the most important factors affecting the yield of oil and char, however, sludge type also affected both results, and pre-treated sludge with either acids, a base or a catalyst did not improve the quantity of oil produced.About:
