Abstract:The co-pyrolysis of sesame oil cake and the waste jute sacks has been conducted in a long tubular type semi-batch reactor in the temperature range of 573 to 1173K in N2 atmosphere. A reaction scheme has been proposed where two parallel reactions occur simultaneously to produce volatiles and char. Kinetic parameters, namely, rate constants, frequency factors, activation energies have been determined through nonlinear regression analysis. Effects of co-pyrolysis temperature have been observed on product yields. … Show more
“…For pyro-oil obtained through non-catalytic pyrolysis of jute, the pH passes through a maximum of 5.7 at 973 K beyond which it drops down to 4.5 at 1173 K. Similar observation has also been reported in our previous research article on pyrolysis of jute. 36 For catalytic pyrolysis in presence of Al 2 O 3 , NaCl and KCl the range of variation of pH is very low (3.5-4.0). On the other hand, the pH decreases from 3.75 and 3.5 at 673 K to 2.5 at 1173 K for aluminosilicate and ZnO respectively.…”
The present study concentrates on the catalytic pyrolysis of a waste bio-packaging material, namely, jute, under iso-thermal and non-isothermal conditions using a 50 mm diameter and 164 mm long semi-batch pyrolyzer and a TGA set-up, respectively.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
