TLDR
Analysis of the chemical structure of liquid products of the pinewood sawdust co-pyrolysis with polystyrene and polypropylene with and without the zinc chloride as an additive proved that the structure and the quality of bio-oil strongly depend on both the composition of the blend and the presence of ZnCl(2) as a additive.

Co-pyrolysis of biomass with waste tyres: Upgrading of liquid bio-fuel

TL;DR: In this paper, a co-pyrolysis of forestry wastes and waste tyres is carried out using different facilities: a fixed bed reactor and a continuous auger reactor, and it is found that whilst acidity, density and oxygen content decrease, pH and calorific value increase with respect to the merely biomass pyrolyse liquid, leading to upgraded bio-oil.

Introduction to pyrolysis of biomass

TL;DR: The pyrolytic properties of biomass are controlled by the chemical composition of its major components, namely cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin and their minor components including extractives and inorganic materials as mentioned in this paper.
