Co-pyrolysis–catalytic steam reforming of cellulose/lignin with polyethylene/polystyrene for the production of hydrogenWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 2 - Trang 177-191 - 2020
Kaltume Akubo, Mohamad Anas Nahil, Paul T. Williams
Co-pyrolysis of biomass biopolymers (lignin and cellulose) with plastic wastes
(polyethylene and polystyrene) coupled with downstream catalytic steam reforming
of the pyrolysis gases for the production of a hydrogen-rich syngas is reported.
The catalyst used was 10 wt.% nickel supported on MCM-41. The influence of the
process parameters of temperature and the steam flow rate was examined to

Study on textile waste generation in the undifferentiated municipal solid waste stream in Guimarães, PortugalWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 5 - Trang 189-203 - 2023
Alona Perebynos, Dalila Sepúlveda, Carlos Ribeiro
Guimarães is a middle sized city and municipality located in northern Portugal.
The municipality has committed to reducing the annual amount of undifferentiated
municipal solid waste (MSW) from 371 kg/capita in 2021 to 120 kg/capita by 2030
under the Zero Waste Cities Certification process. In the municipality of
Guimarães, one of the constant fractions of MSW composition is textile waste

Environmental standards and beneficial uses of waste-to-energy (WTE) residues in civil engineering applicationsWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 5 - Trang 323-350 - 2023
Yixi Tian, Shengwei Dai, Jianfeng Wang
The waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies are now recovering energy and materials
from over 300 million tonnes of municipal solid wastes worldwide. Extensive
studies have investigated substituting natural construction materials with WTE
residues to relieve the environmental cost of natural resource depletion. This
study examined the beneficial uses of WTE residues in civil engineering
applications an... hiện toàn bộ
Experimental study on the partial preheating combustion characteristic of Yankuang coal sludgeWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 3 - Trang 219-225 - 2021
Yi Zhang, Jianguo Zhu, Qinggang Lyu, Jingzhang Liu, Jiahang Zhang
Coal sludge is a seriously polluted solid waste, and the rational utilization of
its resources has long being an undoubtedly important research topic. This paper
mainly studies the coal sludge partial preheating characteristic, combustion
characteristic and the process of migration and conversion of nitrogen with
preheating combustion technology. The experimental results indicate that most of
the ... hiện toàn bộ
Fermentative bio-hydrogen production using lignocellulosic waste biomass: a reviewWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 2 - Trang 249-264 - 2020
Khushboo Swapnil Bhurat, Tushar Banerjee, Jitendra Kumar Pandey, Pranoti Belapurkar
Solid waste management needs, increasing pollution level by burning or dumping
of waste, and the use of fossil fuels and depleting energy resources are a few
of the problems of the decade that need to find answers. Disposal of lots of
compound polymers-rich biomass waste is done worldwide by dumping on land or
into water bodies or else by incineration or long-term storage in an available
facility ... hiện toàn bộ
Dissipation of chlorpyrifos, pendimethalin, and thiophanate-methyl pesticides in compost based-versus peat-moss based-biomixture of biobedsWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 5 - Trang 461-470 - 2023
Talaat N. M. El-Sebai, Wafaa M. H. Zidan, Alaa Marzouk, Marion Divers, Fabrice Martin-Laurent
Biobed is a smart bioremediation system used to treat point-source pesticide
contamination. Biomixture is the main component of biobeds, and pesticide
dissipation is affected by its composition. This study aimed to compare the
effectiveness of compost-based (C) versus peat-moss-based (P) biomixtures of
biobeds on tested pesticide dissipation. Three concentrations (25, 50, and
75 mg/kg) of chlorpyr... hiện toàn bộ
Environmental impact assessment of emissions from non-recycled plastic-to-energy processesWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 3 - Trang 1-11 - 2021
Henry Zhang, Nikolas J. Themelis, Athanasios Bourtsalas
Generally, plastics pose a variety of environmental impacts due to their
increased use and non-biodegradability. End-of-life treatment is a viable way of
recovering energy from plastics while at the same time reducing the amount of
plastics disposed of in landfills. This paper studies the environmental impact
of Non-Recycled Plastics (NRP)-to-energy processes. Three waste treatment
processes were ... hiện toàn bộ
Statistical optimization of lignocellulosic waste containing culture medium for enhanced production of cellulase by Bacillus tequilensis G9Waste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 1 - Trang 213-226 - 2019
Mudasir A. Dar, Kiran D. Pawar, Jyoti M. Chintalchere, Radhakrishna S. Pandit
The ever increasing energy demands of modern civilization and rapidly dwindling
fossil fuels point towards a renewable substitute like biofuels. However, higher
costs associated with biofuel productions is the major bottleneck for its
commercialization. The present study demonstrates the use of a statistical
approach called response surface methodology (RSM) to investigate the optimum
parameters f... hiện toàn bộ
Co-pyrolysis of cassava peel with synthetic polymers: thermal and kinetic behaviorsWaste Disposal & Sustainable Energy - Tập 3 - Trang 289-298 - 2021
B. S. Adeboye, B. Z. Adewole, A. M. Adedoja, S. O. Obayopo, S. A. Mamuru, M. O. Idris, I. K. Okediran, A. A. Asere
This research effort focuses on the co-pyrolysis of cassava peels waste and some
synthetic polymers towards energy conversion and reducing the volume of these
waste fractions dumped on dumpsites. The co-pyrolysis behavior and pyrolysis
kinetics of various synthetic polymer wastes/cassava peel blends were
investigated by blending cassava peel waste with low-density polyethylene
