The effects of temperature and power on product distribution and characteristics of oily sludge (OS) pyrolysis were investigated in a microwave reactor. The maximum oil yield was 72.55 wt% at 550 °C and 71.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOily sludge (OS) has attracted special interest because of its hazardous nature and high potential as an energy resource. This study investigated the oil recovery from OS by thermal cracking and catalytic pyrolysis. The oil yield increased when the temperature exceeded 450 °C and reached a maximum (76.

MWAP achieved higher yields of char and condensate, and lower non-condensable gas yields compared to FBP. The yields of CO from FBP were much higher than those from MWAP at 450-850 °C.
