Deformation of waste tube-tyres into liquid green hydrocarbons (LGHs) through pyrolysis using the FeCO3

Abstract

The liquid green hydrocarbons (LGHs) fuel was collected from waste tube-tyres by the pyrolysis process using FeCO3 a catalyst; it was conducted at 23 to 370 °C. The LGHs fuel were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, GC × GCMS, Parameters of diesel, and ICP. Fractions of LGHs, gases, and residues were obtained from 100 gm, 98 gm, and 95 gm waste tube-tyres with 0 gm, 2 gm, and 5 gm. Waste tube-tyres whose rates of conversion percentage in LGHs 50%, 52%, and 56% gases were 12.52%, 10.52%, and 13.55% residues were 37.48%, 26.48%, and 30.45%. Sulfur percentage, and 23 types of metal elements were obtained in LGHs were less than their standard limits. Physicochemical properties of LGHs fuel were found to be close their standard limits.
