Item type:Publication, Investigating the synergy of fast co-pyrolysis of spent coffee ground and disposed urban facemask: analysis of kinetics and product compositions(2025-12-01); Sricharoenchaikul, ViboonThis study investigates the thermo-kinetic behavior and product distribution during the co-pyrolysis of spent coffee grounds (SCG) and facemasks (FM). TGA was employed to evaluate the kinetics and thermodynamics of the pyrolysis process by segmenting the thermal decomposition into stage I (200 – 360 °C) and stage II (360 – 550 °C), while Py-GC/MS was used to analyse the product composition. SCG and FM blends with varying ratios by wt.% (SCG:FM = 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:100, and 0:100) were subjected to pyrolysis at four heating rates (5, 10, and 30 °C/min). The decomposition curves were deconvoluted using Fraser-Suzuki deconvolution method into four peaks related to biomass pseudo-components and FM degradation. The deconvoluted curves showed potential synergistic interaction at the lignin and FM decomposition zone (460 – 500 °C). The kinetic analyses were carried out using three model-free methods to investigate the activation energy (Ea) and thermodynamics of co-pyrolysis. The lowest Ea value was obtained at SCG25 %FM%75 % (305.1 – 239 kJ/mol), mostly pronounced in stage II. Py-GC/MS analysis of the co-pyrolysis products demonstrates that the decomposition of polypropylene polymer of the FM promoted the formation of aliphatic hydrocarbons and reduces the overall acidity. This effect was further amplified at higher pyrolysis temperatures (450 – 650 °C). The blending ratio also plays a significant role, with a higher polymer content (SCG25 %FM75 %) leading to a more aliphatic products and a significant decline in carboxylic acids and anhydro-sugars. Moreover, co-pyrolysis reduced the N containing compounds significantly. Finally, policy implications and recommendations for co-pyrolysis adoption were incorporated. Overall, this study highlights the potential of utilizing waste material like SCG and FM for the sustainable production of valuable chemicals and fuels. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Enhancing the hydrogen permeation of alumina composite porous membranes via graphene oxide addition(2023-01-12); ; ; Vichaphund, SupawanGraphene oxide (GO) membranes have attracted considerable interest for hydrogen (H<inf>2</inf>) purification applications. However, the addition of GO into matrix materials to enhance the efficiency of H<inf>2</inf> permeation remains a challenge. In this study, the fabrication of alumina/graphene oxide (AGO) composites containing varying contents of GO (0.5–3.0 wt.%) was investigated. The AGO composites were formed into pellets and sintered for 2 h at 1500 °C. Accordingly, the presence of GO in the membranes following sintering was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Additionally, the porosity of the AGO composites increased from 3.7% to 26.9% as the GO concentration increased from 0.5 wt.% to 3.0 wt.%. Furthermore, the average pore diameter of the AGO composites was in the range of 87–228 nm, and the pore size distribution was unimodal. The performance of the AGO membranes was investigated for the permeance of single gases H<inf>2</inf> and N<inf>2</inf> at 30–500 °C to evaluate their potential for H<inf>2</inf> separation applications. The AGO membranes with a GO addition of 2.5 and 3.0 wt.% exhibited a high hydrogen permeance of 232–410 × 10<sup>−6</sup> mol m<sup>−2</sup> s<sup>−1</sup> Pa<sup>−1</sup>, which was approximately 10 times greater than that of pristine Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> membrane. Additionally, the ideal H<inf>2</inf>/N<inf>2</inf> selectivity values ranged from 4.02 to 4.20. Furthermore, gas permeation through the AGO membrane was observed to follow the Knudsen diffusion mechanism. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Hydrogen Sulfide Adsorption on Alumina/Graphene Oxide Composites at Ambient Temperature(2022-11-01); ; ; Hydrogen sulfide (H<inf>2</inf>S) is one of the most common pollutants found in natural gas and industrial waste. Over the few decades, the removal of H<inf>2</inf>S has become a significant problem. In the field of a clean environment such as water purification and toxic gas removal, graphene oxide (GO) has been found to have advantages. In this study, the influence of GO on alumina (Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>) as an adsorbent of H<inf>2</inf>S was examined. A series of Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>/GO (AGO) composites with varying graphene oxide addition (0.5–3.0 wt%) were prepared using the high-temperature sintering method. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicate the primary phase of Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> with hexagonal crystal structure for all AGO composites. Raman spectrometry measurements confirmed that the GO particles were incorporated in AGO composites. The TEM image indicated that GO nanosheets were embedded between Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> grains. The efficiency of AGO adsorbent at ambient temperature was investigated and compared with the pristine Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> adsorbent. The AGO composites adsorbent demonstrated the H<inf>2</inf>S breakthrough capacity in the range of 0.07–0.43 mg/g, which is higher than that of pristine Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> (0.06 mg/g). Furthermore, the highest H<inf>2</inf>S breakthrough capacity of 0.43 mg/g was obtained from AGO containing 3.0 wt% GO. This investigation demonstrates that the AGO adsorbent fabricated using a simple method has the potential to be used for H<inf>2</inf>S removal at ambient temperature.
