Abstract
Biomass pyrolysis performance is improved through co-pyrolysis with hydrogen rich plastic producing more liquid fuel products of higher quality. Furthermore, beyond the synergetic effect, in catalytic pyrolysis the presence of plastic may facilitate the contact between catalyst and biomass. In this study, the effect of pretreatment of plastic/biomass was investigated, in order to further improve the above aims. The first pretreatment method was pre-degradation treatment at relatively low temperatures where solid state reactions alter the structure of plastic/biomass but no volatile products are formed. In addition, a second pretreatment method was used for the catalytic pyrolysis of cellulose, namely co-pressing of cellulose and catalyst particles into mixed pellets.
