Resumo: | This Final Paper aims out to carry out a literature review about an emerging theme in the environmental community which has been gaining more and more space in the industrial field, specifically on the solid waste topic, an alternative form of waste treatment called pyrolysis. Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process that involves decomposition of solid matter at elevated temperatures and while in absence of oxygen. This exposure to high temperatures causes the destruction of molecular bonds and formation of gaseous, liquid and solid products, while the absence of oxygen prevents complete combustion, resulting on formation of volatiles. This method has been extensively studied as a promising alternative for treating solid waste, aiming
to produce energy, valuable products and reduce environmental impact. As for today, pyrolysis is seen as a promising technology for recycling, valuing organic waste, as for the production of biofuels and other value-added products. The pyrolysis of solid waste presents environmental advantages, such as reducing the amount of garbage and debris, minimizing emissions of greenhouse gases and recovering energy from materials previously considered out of use. However, technical, economic and regulatory challenges are still to be overcome for the large scale implementation of this technology. Continuous research seeks to optimize pyrolysis, exploring new catalysts for further improve the efficiency of the process. Solid waste pyrolysis emerges as a promising approach in sustainable waste management, contributing to the transition to a circular economy and reducing dependence on fossil resources. Due to its production potential, there is an entire market that seeks to make use of this technology, thus generating innovations on the area, as the results of the process vary with new technologies and materials that are used. |
