What happens to the quality of oil when biomass is pyrolysed with waste plastic in proportions.
When biomass is pyrolyzed with waste plastic in proportions, the quality of the oil produced can be enhanced. Co-pyrolysis of waste plastic and solid biomass can generate large quantities of hydrogen and hydrogen-rich compounds during pyrolysis, which can improve the yield and quality of gaseous biofuels and bio-oil
Some benefits of co-pyrolysis include:
- Enhanced yield and quality of gaseous biofuels and bio-oil
- Improved heating value, viscosity, and acidity of the pyrolytic oil
- Reduced non-volatility, corrosiveness, immiscibility with fossil fuels, thermal instability, and polymerization tendency of the pyrolytic oil
However, the specific yield and properties of the pyrolytic oil depend on various factors, such as process conditions (temperature, heating rate, catalyst types), waste plastic types, and operating conditions.
The co-pyrolysis process can lead to the production of oils that have properties similar to those of conventional diesel fuels, making them suitable for use in internal combustion engines.

Thank you Atta Ur Rehman for your kind answer. Whereas there are only reports where the increment is reported but it is because of the addition of plastic which itself produces a large amount of pyrolytic. my question was specific that how it effects the composition of biomass oil. Such as a comparision of all three is needed which includes biomass (100%), Plastic (100%), and their blends.
