Biomass residues are crucial feedstocks for facing climate change challenges due to high-value products, such as producing activated carbons (AC) for carbon capture. Two stages of pyrolysis followed by activation at high temperatures are the most use...

Thermal degradation of polyvinyl chloride in the presence of lead oxide: A kinetic and mechanistic investigation (2024)
Journal Article
Altarawneh, S., Al-Harahsheh, M., Ali, L., Altarawneh, M., Ahmed, O. H., Buttress, A., Dodds, C., & Kingman, S. (2024). Thermal degradation of polyvinyl chloride in the presence of lead oxide: A kinetic and mechanistic investigation. Chemical Engineering Journal, 493, Article 152873. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cej.2024.152873

The elimination of toxic heavy metals from metallurgical wastes before its recycling to steel furnaces is essential. Lead oxide (PbO) is a major toxic heavy metal present in electric arc furnace dust (EAFD). The co-recycling of EAFD with Polyvinyl ch...
