Journal Article
Altarawneh, S., Al-Harahsheh, M., Dodds, C., Buttress, A., & Kingman, S. (2022). Thermal degradation kinetics of polyvinyl chloride in presence of zinc oxide. Thermochimica Acta, 707, Article 179105. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tca.2021.179105

This work investigates the degradation kinetics and the pyrolysis behavior of Poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) and its mixture with ZnO using thermogravimetric analysis under an inert atmosphere. The investigation was carried out due to the increased inte... Read More about Thermal degradation kinetics of polyvinyl chloride in presence of zinc oxide.

Microwave selective heating of electric arc furnace dust constituents toward sustainable recycling: Contribution of electric and magnetic fields (2021)
Journal Article
Altarawneh, S., Al-Harahsheh, M., Buttress, A., Dodds, C., Rodriguez, J., & Kingman, S. (2021). Microwave selective heating of electric arc furnace dust constituents toward sustainable recycling: Contribution of electric and magnetic fields. Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, 104, 521-528. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jiec.2021.09.001

Microwave heating of waste electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) for the purpose of its remediation has been studied extensively. However, these studies considered EAFD as a bulk material without addressing either the relative response of its individual c...

Green and simple approach for low-cost bioproducts preparation and CO2 capture (2021)
Journal Article
Durán-Jiménez, G., Kostas, E. T., Stevens, L. A., Meredith, W., Erans, M., Hernández-Montoya, V., …Binner, E. (2021). Green and simple approach for low-cost bioproducts preparation and CO2 capture. Chemosphere, 279, Article 130512. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.130512

This study has demonstrated, for the first time, a simple, fast and flexible microwave processing method for the simultaneous preparation of bio-products (bio-oil, bio-gas and biochar) using a methodology that avoids any form of catalyst or chemical...
