Description

The properties of biochars obtained by the torrefaction of acrylic based textile wastes were investigated. Waste fibres were torrefied at 300-400 °C and the results indicated that acrylic based textile wastes could be converted into biochar with a high mass yield. Resultant biochars had similar properties to bituminous coal. (paper)
