Hydrogen production by waste tire recycling by photo-pyrolysis

Abstract

Waste tires are a major environmental concern due to their non-degradable nature and the large area occupied by them in landfills worldwide.

Biomass screening for syngas production by flash photopyrolysis

“… 16 Recent work demonstrated that this technique can also be used to produce hydrogen from tires. 17 Through the application of light pulses characterized by varying intensities and a wide range of wavelengths, a succession of photo-thermal and photo-chemical reactions is initiated. Originally designed for photonic sintering, this pulsed light system saw its first application in drying edge-oxidized graphene nanosheet films for rapid establishment of a compact electrode surface.…”
