Improvement of fuel properties of waste biomass and plastics mixtures by torrefaction

Increasing energy needs in the world requires efficient use of existing resources as well as the search for new resources. It is important to evaluate plastic waste in terms of reducing environmental pollution and contributing to the economy by using energy resources effectively. In this study, which is a major environmental problem of the waste plastic bags, waste furniture factory binary mixture in different proportions of pellets prepared by mixing the powder with higher fuel during combustion flue gas emissions from production and recycling torrefaksiyon is intended to reduce the calorific value. Because the energy industry is the largest industry in economies and the rapid depletion of non-renewable resources, the search for alternative energy sources is constantly in question. Studies are being conducted on the potential use of plastic waste as a source of energy. However, despite the great potential for the application of plastic waste as fuel pellets, its use and development are still very limited. Therefore, the use of these wastes by torrefying them into pellets together with the waste biomass will be ensured that the waste plastic and biomass will be converted into a valuable fuel together.
