Abstract
In this study, microwave pyrolysis of waste printed circuit boards (WPCBs) was carried out in an inert atmosphere, and the effects of pyrolysis temperature and nitrogen flow rate on the yield and composition of pyrolysis products were investigated. With the increase of pyrolysis temperature, the yield of liquid product increases gradually, and the yield of solid product decreases gradually. At 600°C, the yield of each phase tends to be stable. When the temperature continues to rise, the content of H2 and CO decreases, and the content of C6 ~ C9 in the liquid product decreases. Microwave heating promotes the pyrolysis of brominated epoxy resin, which helps to improve the recovery rate of valuable substances and reduce the environmental impact of waste treatment. This study demonstrates that the microwave pyrolysis of WPCBs in nitrogen atmosphere has great potential in the green recovery process.
期刊介绍:
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering (CJChE) publishes original research articles, new theoretical interpretation or experimental findings and critical reviews in the science or industrial practice of chemical and biochemical processes. Preference is given to papers having a clearly indicated scope and applicability in any of the following areas: Fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, multiphase flows, separations processes, thermodynamics, process systems engineering, reactors and reaction kinetics, catalysis, interfacial phenomena, electrochemical phenomena, bioengineering, minerals processing and natural products and environmental and energy engineering. Papers that merely describe or present a conventional or routine analysis of existing processes will not be considered.
