Automobile shredder residue pyrolysis

This article examines the recovery of automobile shredder residue (ASR), and considers three recovery options ASR as a landfill day cover, ASR in the production of composite materials, and the pyrolysis of ASR to recover chemical feedstock. All are discussed in detail. [Pg.94]

The process is used on petroleum sludges, used tires, biomedical waste, automobile shredder residues, bark residues and municipal solid wastes. It is limited to treating organic wastes and contaminated soil. For soil contaminated by polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), vacuum pyrolysis cannot destroy the PCBs but will concentrate them in the pyrolytic oils. The process cannot be used to treat mine tailings.
