Abstract:
Over the next 30 years, the global energy mix is set to become far more diversified, with renewable energy sources providing a significant share of world energy. Of these sources, biomass and waste are considered the most abundant, readily available and cost-effective. As opposed to other renewables that are only capable of generating electricity, the production of fuels and chemicals is also possible via the utilization of biomass and waste. Ideally, the production of fuels and/or chemicals from solid waste materials would include a single process step with a high degree of conversion. Pyrolysis has been considered as a viable conversion technology for the production of fuel intermediates, chemicals, and materials in the form of liquid, solid, and gaseous product fractions in various proportions. It is defined as the direct thermal decomposition of an organic substance (e.g. woody or residual biomass, waste plastic, etc.) at elevated temperatures (between 250 and 650°C) and atmospheric pressure in the complete absence of an oxidizing agent (air or oxygen); so that oxidation, combustion, or gasification do not occur to any appreciable extent. Compared to some other waste-to-fuel conversion processes, a major advantage of pyrolysis is that any type of solid feedstock can be processed. The outcome of a pyrolysis process depends on several technical factors related to the type and the properties of the feedstock and the reactor, process conditions, and intended application of the final products. The objective of this comprehensive lecture is to focus on the R&D advances and trends in the field of pyrolysis. Fundamental knowledge in this area will be summarized with their key features highlighted. The main spotlight will be on the research aimed to achieve the optimal feedstock and catalysts, reactor technologies, and process conditions. The current understanding of the chemistry and the reaction mechanisms in catalytic fast pyrolysis will be provided as well.
