Abstract:
Water pollutants with plastic wastes and the ongoing eutrophication process have ecological and social consequences, and are significant problems of water pools ecosystem and environment. Thermal treatment offers many opportunities for the Baltic Sea Region to recycle low-quality resources and wastes into renewable, high-quality biofuels. This study will investigate the micro- and laboratory-scale properties of seaweed and used fishing nets during thermal degradation and catalytic thermal degradation reactions. The functional groups of volatile compounds, which are the most influential for product formation during pyrolysis will be analyzed. Also, analysis by chromatographic and continious measurement methods of the gaseous and liquid products during the pyrolysis reactions at the laboratory-scale bench will be maintained.
