Effect of design parameters in nanocatalyst synthesis on pyrolysis for producing diesel-like fuel from waste lubricating oil.

Converting waste lubricating oil into diesel-like liquid fuels using pyrolysis presents a dual solution, addressing environmental pollution while offering a viable response to the fossil energy crisis. However, achieving high-quality fuel with a substantial yield necessitates the utilization of highly active and cost-effective catalysts. We report the development of Fe-Ni nanocatalysts, synthesized using a green approach and supported on TiO, as a promising strategy for converting waste lubricating oil into premium-grade diesel-like fuel.
