- Abstract
The preliminary thermogravimetric studies of co-pyrolyzed low rank coals (lignites Kostolac and Kolubara) with waste materials (spent coffee ground and waste rubber granulate) in a form of blends have been performed. Thermal analysis measurements of blend samples were carried out in a nitrogen, atmosphere at three different heating rates of 10, 15, and 20 K per minute. The coal-waste blends were prepared in the percentage ratios of 90:10, 80:20, and 70:30. This work analyzed the synergy analysis for considered blends shown via descriptive parameters during co-pyrolysis process. According to the performed analysis, the presence of synergistic effect was identified, where strong interactions were also observed. For lignite-spent coffee ground blends, it was found that two factors which affect the synergy effect with coal are concentration of added biomass material and the heating rate. For lignite-tire rubber granulate blends, the blending ratio take on a decisive role for positive consequences of a synergistic effect (ratios below 30% of tire rubber granulate in coals are desirable). Also, in this work the influence of micro-scale condition parameters such as heating rate (as the experimental regulatory factor) was analyzed on the magnitude response of synergism during co-pyrolysis.
