In this work, the chemical preparation of activated carbon (AC) using walnut shell (WS) and plastic wastes (primarily consisting of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene) as feedstocks and chemical activators (KOH and NaOH) was investigated in a fixed-bed reactor. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) (TGA) was used to carbonize WS together with p...
End-of-life tires are discarded on a daily basis but even at present limited action has been taken towards boosting their recyclability as most of the tires are either incinerated or landfilled/stockpiled. The complexity of tires has also been drastically increased, with little attention to designing them specifically for recycling. The retreading...
The gas-solid vortex reactor (GSVR) has enormous process intensification potential. However the huge gas consumption can be a serious disadvantage for the GSVR in some applications such as fast pyrolysis. In this work, we demonstrate a recent novel design, where a stator-rotor vortex chamber (STARVOC) is driven by the fluid’s kinetic energy, to dec...
