Waste Management Changing Trends

-

  • Many Landfill no longer charge for recyclables or yard waste, as an incentive to bring them separated waste
  • There are a growing number of cities that are adding sticks to the carrots in their waste recycling enforcement programs, like pay as you throw programs. Zero waste is a consultingg Companies to set up up Pay as You Throw.
  • If we could partner with pay as you throw consultants we could be recipients of high value consisten plastic stream
  • Pay as you throw is endorsed by the EPA

HiIgh 4-ethyl phenol (4-EP) using activated carbon (AC)

-
China Study shows that  highest quality  4-ethyl phenol (4-EP)  was produced at 300 Degrees C Fast pyrolysis of bagasse catalyzed by activated carbon (AC) at low temperatures offered a new and promising way to produce the valuable 4-ethyl phenol (4-EP) compound in high selectivity. In this study, the technique of pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) was first applied to investigate several factors on the 4-EP production, including biomass type, fast pyrolysis temperature, AC-to-bagasse ratio, and catalytic pattern (in situ or ex situ catalysis). Moreover, fast pyrolysis experiments by using AC catalyst were conducted in a lab-scale setup to quantitatively determine the pyrolytic products. The experimental results indicated that, among these five herbaceous biomass materials, bagasse was the best material to produce 4-vinylphenol (4-VP) from the noncatalytic process and 4-EP from the catalytic fast pyrolysis process, respectively. 4-VP and its prec...

Catalytic Pyrolysis Study

-
This Study seems to be on behalf of the KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) reaching towards goal of an energy circular economy. Natural Zeolite is a cheap local product there and they wanted to try it out. In the Catalytic process, the catalytic process enhances the target pyrolysis reactions and reduces reaction times and temperature, improves the liquid oil quality and increased the overall process efficiency (quote from a 2012 article). The surface area, acidity,, porce size and volume are key features of the catalyst: list of catalysts tried: FCC, cilica alumina, MCM-41, and zeolites like Y-zeolite, HZSM, and ZSM-5 -FCC microporuse increases liquids, ZSM-5 increases gas yield due to mesoporus structure. Microporus catalysts linit the entrance of higher Hydrocarbons High acidity catalysts increase liquid and decrease gases (2016 study) Zeolite is a new catalyst and is not in many studies ( The Italians I did an article about say they are using zeolite) The study aims to study...
