Abstract

Methods for the utilization of polymer wastes are surveyed. The results of experimental studies on the pyrolysis of peat–polyethylene mixtures depending on process conditions are reported. The yield of pyrolysis products and the composition and calorific value of gases were studied; in this case, the calorific value increased by 30–40%, as compared with the heat of combustion of gas generated from peat.
