PG - 211-220 LID - S0956-053X(23)00379-3 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.wasman.2023.05.032 [doi] AB - The inert atmosphere in chemical looping (CL) technology can considerably inhibit the formation of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans during the thermal treatment of polyvinyl chloride plastic (PVC) waste. In this study, PVC was innovatively converted to dechlorinated fuel gas via CL gasification under a high reaction temperature (RT) and the inert atmosphere by applying an unmodified bauxite residue (BR) as both a dechlorination agent and oxygen carrier. The dechlorination efficiency reached 49.98% at an oxygen ratio of only 0.1. Furthermore, a moderate RT (750 degrees C in this study) and an increased oxygen ratio enhanced the dechlorination effect. The highest dechlorination efficiency (92.12%) was achieved at an oxygen ratio of 0.6. Iron oxides in BR improved the generation of syngas from CL reactions. The yields of the effective gases (CH(4), H(2), and CO) increased by 57.13% to 0.121 Nm(3)/kg with an increase in oxygen ratio from 0 to 0.6. A high RT improved the production of the effective gases (an 809.39% increase to 0.344 Nm(3)/kg from 600 to 900 degrees C). Energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to study the mechanism, and formation of NaCl and Fe(3)O(4) was observed on the reacted BR, indicating the successful adsorption of Cl and its capability as an oxygen carrier. Therefore, BR eliminated Cl in situ and enhanced the generation of value-added syngas, thereby achieving efficient PVC conversion. CI - Copyright (c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
