Abstract:The influence of 2 wt.% additives of expired paracetamol and naproxen on the thermal behaviour of densified samples of pea husks (PH), corncobs (CC), and sunflower inflorescences (SI) was studied using an analytical TG/FTIR unit. Gaseous, liquid, and solid pyrolysis products were evaluated using XRD, SEM, and EDX techniques along with FT-IR, ATR, and UV spectroscopies. It was found that the additives changed the yield and composition of pyrolysis products differently. The addition of paracetamol increases the … Show more
