Abstract
O, formed during WTO oxidation were evaluated by means of the characteristic infrared absorbance. The functional groups evolved during pyrolysis, namely, alkanes, alkenes, aromatics, and carbonyl groups, were also analyzed. The obtained information can be used for the better design of gasifiers and combustors, to ensure the formation of high-value gaseous products while reducing the emissions. The utilization of waste tires by producing pyrolysis oils thus offers a way of tackling the menace of waste tires while acting as a potential energy source.
