Municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration plays an important role in waste treatment systems
throughout the world, due to the advantages of fast volume reduction by 80–90%, heat …

Waste generation creates issues that must be resolved to reduce the impact of waste on the
environment. Therefore, some waste fractions are transformed into refuse-derived fuels …

Extremely high volatiles and excessive chlorine contents remained bottlenecks for the
conversion of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) into eco-friendly solid fuel. In our work, we proposed …

Pyrolysis and combustion have become effective technologies for oily sludge treatment. This
paper firstly investigated N/S/Cl pollutants during pyrolysis and combustion of oily sludge in …

The organic and inorganic additives in PVC plastics cause great difficulties in their actual
recycling process, which are different from pure PVC polymer (PVC-PO). In this study, PVC …

Chlorine (Cl) is extensively present in solid wastes, causing significant problems during the
thermal conversion of waste to energy or fuels, by combustion, gasification or pyrolysis. This …

Increasing economy and population result in the rapid growth of solid waste in China, with
more than 70% being carbonaceous components. The generated carbon-bearing solid …

Reuse and recycling are preferred strategies in waste management to ensure the high
position of waste resources in the waste management hierarchy. However, challenges are …

Co-hydrothermal carbonization (co-HTC) of lignocellulosic biomass and polyvinyl chloride
(PVC) is an effective method to remove organic-Cl in PVC. However, the pattern of …

Gasification is an effective technology for the thermal disposal of municipal solid waste
(MSW) with lower dioxin emission compared to the prevailing incineration process …
