“…RF is a very heterogeneous material composed of fluff, cord with tyre adhered to it and finely grounded crumbs of tyre [3,11]. The tyre crumbs with a particle size lower than 3 mm were used as received.…”

“…The nitrogen and oxygen contents of the oils from RF, RF/Coal and RF/BW are higher in the oils of both ovens than in those from TC. In a previous research work it was shown that RF is composed mainly of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyamide [3]. The decomposition of polyamide produces nitrogen-enriched compounds whereas PET produces oxygenated compounds [3,21].…”

In this article, correlation between the influence of catalysts on waste tires pyrolysis at small-and laboratory-scale installation are highlighted. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of tires rubber thermochemical transformations were evaluated using thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). For that purpose, Zeolite (ZSM-5), alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ), and magnesium oxide (MgO) were used as catalyst. It was found that all catalysts induce a delayed onset of pyrolytic process and MgO and CaCO 3 significantly reduced the activation energy (E a ) from 246.89 kJÁmole 21 (thermal pyrolysis) to 121.82 and 128.34 kJÁ mole 21 , respectively. At laboratory scale, a fixed-bed reactor was used to distinguish how the contact manner between tires and catalysts influences the yield of pyrolysis products as well as the gas quality. It was proved that CaCO 3 and Al 2 O 3 are the most suitable catalysts for increasing the gas fraction, while the MgO promotes the formation of liquid fraction.
