This paper presents a study of the pyrolysis products organic raw materials (bio-oil and sludge sediments of treatment facilities) by chromatographic methods. A feature of the work is to optimize the sample preparation procedure by fractionating the pyrolysis products. Using the method of gel permeation chromatography, molecular weight distribution of pyrolysis products was assessed. Determination of the water content in these objects (by Karl Fischer titration) was used to assess the possibility of their direct analysis by gas chromatography. A sample of sludge pyrolysis and several fractions obtained from a bio-oil sample were analyzed. By the method of two-dimensional gas chromatography, where a selfdeveloped column based on an ionic liquid was used as the first measurement column, the pyrolysate of sludge sediments and the ether fraction of bio-oil were analyzed. The obtained chromatograms and quantitative results are presented

Abstract Methods for analysis of carbon-black-loaded vulcanizates are of considerable interest to the rubber industry and to those supplying its raw materials. Identification of polymers or copolymers present in such stocks is an important step in this analysis. Often it becomes desirable also to determine the composition of a blend of two or more elastomers. In recent years gas chromatographic analysis of volatile pyrolysis products has been increasingly applied to these intractable materials. A wide variety of polymers and experimental techniques for pyrolysis and subsequent chromatographic analysis have been used. A complete resume of this work is beyond the scope of this report, but recent papers dealing with the use of these methods in elastomer analysis include those of Groten, Hulot and Lebel, Blenkin, Lebel, Fiorenza and Bonomi, and an excellent review of pyrolytic techniques by Brauer. This study was an evaluation of the applicability of simultaneous flame ionization and electron capture (dual-channel) chromatography, with or without temperature programming to polymer identification and to quantitative analysis of elastomer blends.

The objective of this study was to provide background date on rice straw pyrolysis in molten KCl(40mol%)-LiCl(60mol%). The effects of pyrolysis temperatures and sweep gas flow rates on the pyrolysis products yields and their chemical compositions were studied. The temperatures of pyrolysis and sweep gas flow rates were varied in the range of 380°C -540°C and 60L/h-260L/h, respectively. The compositions of gaseous products were analyzed by gas chromatography, and that of bio-oil obtained was investigated using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopic(GC-MS) technique. The yield of gaseous products increases with the increasing temperature, the char yield has demonstrated a downtrend, and the maximum yield of bio-oil is up to 15.43 wt.% at 460°C. The yield of char decreases with the sweep flow rate, the gaseous has a minimum yield at 100L/h, and the maximum yield of bio-oil is 15.43wt.% at 100L/h .The main gaseous products are CO, CO2 , H2 and CH4. Ketones and phenols are the main compounds in the bio-oil, the presence of molten inhabites their formation, and promotes the production of furfural. The bio-oil attained from pyrolysis is a potential source of renewable fuel and chemical feedstock.

Nowadays, energy consumption has increased as a population increases with socio-economic developments and improved living standards. Therefore, it is necessary to find a replacement for fossil energy with renewable energy sources, and the potential to develop is biofuels. Bio-oil, water phase, gas, and char products will be produced by utilizing Spirulina platensis (SPR) microalgae extraction residue as pyrolysis raw material. The purpose of this study is to characterize pyrolysis products and bio-oil analysis with GC-MS. Quality fuel is good if O/C is low, H/C is high, HHV is high, and oxygenate compounds are low, but aliphatic and aromatic are high. Pyrolysis was carried out at a temperature of 300-600°C with a feed of 50 grams in atmospheric conditions with a heating rate of 5-35°C/min, the equipment used was a fixed-bed reactor. The higher the pyrolysis temperature, the higher the bio-oil yield will be to an optimum temperature, then lower. The optimum temperature of pyrolysis is 550°C with a bio-oil yield of 23.99 wt%. The higher the pyrolysis temperature, the higher the H/C, the lower O/C. The optimum condition was reached at a temperature of 500°C with the values of H/C, and O/C is 1.17 and 0.47. With an increase in temperature of 300-600°C, HHV increased from 11.64 MJ/kg to 20.63 MJ/kg, the oxygenate compound decreased from 85.26 to 37.55 wt%. Aliphatics and aromatics increased, respectively, from 5.76 to 36.72 wt% and 1.67 to 6.67 wt%.

The aim of the work, the results of which are presented in the article, was to evaluate the influence of the method of sample preparation on the results of pyrolytic analyses: RockEval, Py-GC-FID (gas chromatography with FID detector) and Py-GC-IRMS (isotope mass spectrometry with gas chromatography). Mortars and ball mills are most often used to grind the samples. Three rock samples with a higher organic carbon content (shales) and five with a lower organic carbon content (including two samples of dolomites and three of anhydrites) were prepared. The rocks were homogenized and divided into three parts. Each part was ground: by hand in a mortar, in a ball mill for 5 minutes, and in a ball mill for 15 minutes. A total of 24 RockEval analyses, 48 Py-GC-FID analyses (two pyrolysis temperatures corresponding to RockEval pyrolysis conditions) and 24 Py-GC-IRMS analyses were performed. The grinding of the samples for the RockEval analyses is insignificant. The differences in the results seem to indicate the influence of the analysis error and the nature of the sample. For the Py-GC-FID methodology, the influence of milling on the results of desorption carried out at the temperature of 300ºC for most of the tested samples can be considered insignificant and negligible. At the temperature of 500ºC, various types of samples show some correlations, but they are insufficient to reject one of the methods of sample preparation. Therefore, it is important to analyze the results comprehensively, taking into account both the group composition and the distribution of pyrolysis products. In the case of the isotopic composition analyses (Py-GC-IRMS), also no differences in δ13C values related to different types of grinding samples can be found. Summarizing, all the results show a negligible influence of the method of grinding the samples on the results of pyrolysis analyses. Nevertheless, it is important that only one method of sample preparation is used for a separate sample series.

Orange trees in Brazil are often burned as a means of eradication when they become infected with Huanglongbing disease. Rather than destroying them, which is a low-value proposition, one potential option is to utilize the biomass through pyrolysis. In this preliminary work, orange trees (Citrus sinensis) otherwise selected for purging, were sampled and pyrolyzed at 500 °C, and the charcoal and bio-oil were evaluated for potential value-added use. The results showed that the pyrolysis process resulted in 26.3% charcoal, 57.6% bio-oil, and 16.0% non-condensable gases. Qualitative analysis of the bio-oil by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry found 178 chemical compounds; however, only 25% of those compounds could be reliably identified. Potential applications of the compounds identified in the bio-oil were determined by examining the published literature, and it was found that at least 73% of them showed promise. Finally, initial studies on the immediate analysis of the pyrolysis charcoal showed that it potentially meets the standards set forth for Brazilian domestic use.
