Abstract
Sustainability would be the only workable solution to the world's present environmental, energy, and social problems. Biomass is regarded as one of the most critical resources for the sustainability of energy needs because it is abundant and carbon neutral. Despite the availability of various biomass sources, the study focuses on the underutilized and easily accessible mixed biomass waste from industry. The study examines the pyrolytic behaviour of biomass waste using a catalyst made from the eggshell, which was impregnated with metal ions. Thermogravimetric experiments were conducted to understand the pyrolysis characteristics of biomass waste. Biomass samples combined with 10 wt% eggshell-derived catalyst and iron-impregnated catalyst are part of the TGA experiment. According to the thermogravimetric analysis, there are noticeable differences between the biomass sample with and without an iron-impregnated catalyst regarding its pyrolytic behaviour. The experimental findings make it clear that adding the catalyst causes additional reactions to occur in the pyrolysis process. These additional reactions help bring down the temperature and energy needed for the entire operation.
