The effects of gasification temperature (850–1000°C) and partial pressure of CO2 (0.3–1.0 atm) on gasification rate of tire-char/CO2 have been determined in a thermobalance reactor. The gasification rate was found to be independent of char size for sizes less than 0.65 mm and initial sample...

The effects of bed temperature (700–900 °C), freeboard temperature (600–800 °C) and excess-air ratio (0–100%) on CO, NOx and SO2 emissions, axial temperature profiles, and combustion efficiency of shredded waste tires have been determined in a 76.2 mm i.d. × 1.2m high fluidized-bed...

The effects of feed rate of waste tires (0.21*0.52 kg/h), oxygen concentration (0–11%), pyrolysis temperature (700–800°C), and fluidizing gas velocity (1.5−3.0 μmf) on product (gas, oil, char) yield, composition, energy recovery, and heating value of the product gas have been determined...
