摘要

The nonlinear synergistic interactions between biomass and plastics during co-pyrolysis make accurate prediction of bio-oil yield a significant challenge for process optimization. This study aimed to develop a high-fidelity machine learning framework capable of forecasting liquid yield based on complex physicochemical and operational variables. A comprehensive dataset of 192 experimental records was curated to train and validate eight distinct regression algorithms, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), AdaBoost, and Support Vector Regression, using a rigorous 5-fold cross-validation protocol. Performance benchmarking identified CNN and AdaBoost as the superior models, achieving a test coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.982 and demonstrating exceptional generalization on unseen data. To transcend “black-box” limitations, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis was applied, identifying the plastic-to-biomass blending ratio and feedstock elemental oxygen content as the dominant predictors of yield. The results quantitatively confirm that optimizing the feedstock blend ratio is the primary lever for maximizing liquid recovery, surpassing the influence of residence time. This study provides a validated, interpretable computational tool that allows operators to estimate co-pyrolysis performance and design optimal feedstock mixtures without extensive trial-and-error experimentation.
