Oxygenated chemical compounds from oxidation liquefaction of the municipal solid waste (MSW) and personal protective equipment (PPE) - GC analysis

This method has been used to break down the polymer matrix of municipal solid waste (MSW) and personal protective equipment (PPE) measure the resin degradation yield. In this experiment, the effects of five different parameters, such as reaction temperature, residence time, pressure, waste-to-liquid ratio, and oxidant concentration, on resin degradation were studied in detail.

Experiments were performed in the temperature range of 200°C to 300°C with a residence time of 45 minutes, at a pressure of 30 bar, a waste-to-liquid ratio of 3-37,5%, and oxidant concentrations of 30-60% by weight. The GC method was used to analyse an achive liquid sample after the oxidative liquefaction process.
