Abstract

Purpose: To study the properties of MSW generated in Ukraine in order to ensure their most efficient processing using the multi-loop recirculation pyrolysis technology in order produce a liquid fuel product. Design/methodology/approach: The problem' study of MSW accumulation in the world countries was carried out on the basis scientific databases PubMed, ScienceDirect, Mendeley, ResearchGate, Google Scholar for the corresponding keywords. The MSW properties generated in Ukraine were determined in accordance with the current standards to determine the specific properties of materials. For the experimental study, 3 types of solid organic waste mixtures were compiled, the composition of which characterizes the variable data on the accumulation of household and industrial waste of Ukraine. The quantity and quality of the liquid product obtained was determined using certified equipment. Findings: The tests revealed that the composition of the solid organic waste mixture when disposing of them by the multi-loop recirculation pyrolysis method has little effect the composition and properties of the obtained liquid hydrocarbon product; the total time of complete degradation for different mixtures of composite materials (mixtures of polymeric substances) is 180-250 min; the correct selection of the temperature of the circulation system makes it possible to produce a gaseous or liquid product which can then be used as an alternative fuel. Research limitations/implications: Current study of solid organic waste degradation was carried out by the multi-loop recirculation pyrolysis method. The experimental waste mixtures did not contain very wet waste of small fractions. Practical implications: The technology of circulating pyrolysis makes it possible to change the qualitative and quantitative composition of the obtained liquid hydrocarbon product, which is a potential fuel, irrespective of the composition of the solid organic waste mixture.Originality/value: It has been experimentally established that the quality of the liquid hydrocarbon product obtained by the multi-loop recirculation pyrolysis process does not depend on the composition of the solid organic waste mixture, but depends on the process' duration and the third circuit' temperature of the multi-loop recirculation system.
