The microwave-assisted fast co-pyrolysis of chlorella and tire with additive under N and CO atmospheres were investigated. The pyrolysis profiles, yields of three-phase, the chemical composition of liquid and the ultimate analyses of solid residues were gained. With the tire ratio increasing, all the characters had the changes. The finial temperature had a wave change. The yield of liquid decreased and the chemical composition obtained in liquid of oxygenates compounds decreased, while hydrocarbon compounds increased, among which aromatic hydrocarbons had the highest content. The yield of solid increased, the HHV had a wave change and the values of H/C decreased. Under CO atmosphere, the final temperatures were lower with 70% and 100% chlorella ratios, the yield difference of liquid reached the minimal with 70% and 30% chlorella ratios. According to the quantity and quality of liquid and solid, and the former results, 50% percentage of tire was the suitable ratio.

Attainment of a pristine copper cobaltite (CuCoO) phase by a fast and easy microwave (MW) assisted method is presented in this paper. The successful synthesis was supported by a series of characterization techniques, which confirmed the presence of a single phase and a possible inverted spinel crystal structure. Furthermore, catalytic performance evaluation of CuCoO in propane oxidation demonstrated its selectivity towards carbon dioxide (CO) formation, with negligible propanol production.

Microwave-stimulated smart self-healable polymeric coatings with significant protective technology against corrosion have been developed in this work. Herein, a generous approach is strategized to generate linseed oil-derived epoxy composites embedded with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as a nanofiller in the shielding network. The composite showed excellent self-healing and shape memory properties when irradiated with microwaves due to the dynamic reversible nature of the disulfide covalent bond exchange mechanism.
