Microwave-induced pyrolysis of sewage sludge.
TL;DR: This paper describes a new method for pyrolyzing sewage sludge using a microwave furnace, found that if just the raw wet sludge is treated in the microwave, only drying of the sample takes place, but if it is mixed with a small amount of a suitable microwave absorber, temperatures of up to 900 degrees C can be achieved, so thatpyrolysis takes place rather than drying.
