STUDY OF THE PYROLYSIS PRODUCTS OF AUTOMOBILE TIRES USING TWO-DIMENSIONAL GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY - article

The development of the technologies of processing by-products is one of the urgent tasks of the present. Solution of this problem is instrumental in cleaning and sanitation of environment, and also it makes it possible to enlarge raw-material base for the industry. Pyrolysis of organic wastes can come out as the source of alternative fuel. The finished tire covers are one of the forms of such wastes. The pyrolysis of rubber tires leads to obtaining of gaseous combustible products, pyrolytic liquid and solid residue, which is carbon with the adsorbed products of pyrolysis. By the method of two-dimensional gas chromatography in combination with mass-spectroscopy we analyzed the composition of pyrolytic liquid. About 6500 organic compounds have been identified: the saturated, unsaturated, aromatic hydrocarbons, the derivatives of thiophene, cyclic aminocompounds. By its composition pyrolytic liquid is close to the diesel fuel and can be use as the alternative fuel.

Keywords: two-dimensional gas chromatography, mass-spectroscopy, pyrolysis, rubber tires.
