Comparative Investigation of the Physicochemical Properties of Chars Produced by Hydrothermal Carbonization, Pyrolysis, and Microwave-Induced Pyrolysis of Food Waste

Moonis Ali Khan et al.

Summary: This study presents a comparative analysis of the physicochemical properties of chars produced by three thermochemical pathways: hydrothermal carbonization, pyrolysis, and microwave-assisted pyrolysis. The results demonstrate that temperature and power have significant effects on the mass yield, heating value, and structure of the chars. The optimal temperature for hydrothermal carbonization is 180°C, for pyrolysis is 500°C, and for microwave-assisted pyrolysis is 300 W.

Hydrothermal carbonization of rape straw: Effect of reaction parameters on hydrochar and migration of AAEMs

Chen Cheng et al.

Summary: Hydrothermal carbonization improves the biomass quality and energy yield of rape straw. The properties of hydrochars produced at different temperatures and residence times were investigated. The results showed that increasing temperature had a more significant effect on hydrochar properties than residence time. The hydrochar structure was changed and became more stable after the aromatization reaction. The gasification reactivity of hydrochar was also affected, with the peak of pyrolysis and gasification shifting to a higher temperature region. Furthermore, hydrothermal carbonization efficiently reduced the content of alkali and alkaline earth metals, with the best removal condition observed at 200°C.

Hydrothermal Conversion of Food Waste to Carbonaceous Solid Fuel-A Review of Recent Developments

Moonis Ali Khan et al.

Summary: This review critically discusses recent developments in hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of food waste and its valorization to solid fuel. It covers food waste properties and fundamentals of the HTC reactor, as well as the effect of various factors on the physiochemical properties of hydrochar. The review finds that the hydrochar produced from food waste has properties comparable to sub-bituminous coal and can be used as fuel or co-combusted with coal.
