Abstract

This paper presents an experimental approach on understanding and managing the environmental hazards of co-products resulted during energy recovery processes applied on scrap tires. As tire combustion faces serious problems related to harmful emissions, pyrolysis appear as a process that allow the management of toxic compounds. Thus, for the reactions that occur during pyrolysis and combustion of tires organic matters the main intensive degradation thermal ranges have been established. The work was carried out by coupling thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of tire samples with bench scale reactor in order to identify the relationships between thermochemical behaviour and products distribution.
