Abstract

We did a kinetic analysis of the thermal degradation of wax materials obtained from pyrolysis of mixed waste plastics using the nonisothermal weight loss technique with heating rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40 ℃/min. The weight loss data according to degradation temperature were analyzed by using the integral method based on Arrhenius form to obtain the kinetic parameters. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed kinetic analysis method, the experimental values were compared with those of the numerical integration results using kinetic parameters obtained in this work. It_x000D_ was found that the proposed kinetic analysis method gave reliable kinetic parameters of the thermal degradation of wax materials obtained from pyrolysis of mixed waste plastics.
