Oxidative Pyrolysis of the Mixtures of Oil and Plant Raw Materials

Abstract

The influence of the composition of the mixtures of petroleum (fuel oil) and vegetable raw materials on the yield and composition of products formed upon the pyrolysis of the mixtures was investigated. Data on the pyrolytic transformations of the mixtures in a temperature range of 140–700°C are given. It was established experimentally that the yield of solid pyrolysis products decreases and the yield of gas and tar increases with the fuel oil content of the mixture. The yield of pyrolysis products also depends on the concentration of emulsified water in the mixtures.
