Investigation on co-prolysis of sewage sludge with coal

Co-pyrolysis characteristics of sludge with coal and sludge briquetted with coal were studied by the TG-FTIR method. From TG data, weight loss of sludge briquetted was higher than that of sludge and sludge and coal which means that thermal reaction effect of sludge briquetted is better than those of other two materials. Gas products of pyrolysis were CO, CO2, H2O, alcohol, ketone, acid, hydrocarbon, amine and azine from the FTIR analysis. At last, evolving patterns of the pyrolyses and the yields of their gas products have been recorded, providing extremely important data on the mechanism of the process.<p>Validerad; 2014; 20140515 (andbra)
