Performance of electronic waste based mixed metal oxide as novel oxygen carriers for chemical looping co-combustion of high ash coal and rice straw.

Electronic waste (e-waste) is one of the major pollutants accumulated due to its huge demand and short lifespan. Hence, it is essential to reuse and extract the value added components from e-waste. In this context, firstly, a printed circuit board (PCB) is used to produce calorific valuable gases by pyrolysis and gasification reactions.

Prospects and issues of integration of co-combustion of solid fuels (coal and biomass) in chemical looping technology.

The utilization of fossil fuels leads to the emission of greenhouse gases into the environment. As a consequence, ozone layer depletion, global warming, acid rain, etc. are caused.
