Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study of the energy potential of nondesign fuels using pyrolytic gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC–MS). The test materials were samples of sewage sludge (SWS) and hydrolytic lignin (HL) collected in the Arkhangelsk oblast. The initial samples were characterized by their key physicochemical parameters. Attention was paid to an analysis of the chromatograms of pyrolysis products obtained under various temperature conditions. Key temperature ranges of maximum heat release were determined for each type of feedstock. For sewage sludge, the highest yield of high-calorific components determining peak heat release was observed in a range of 400–500°C. For hydrolytic lignin, a similar peak energy release was recorded at a significantly lower temperature of approximately 300°C due to its specific composition. A detailed identification and qualitative assessment of the main components in the pyrolysis products of both fuels was performed using GC–MS and HPLC analysis. The results of this work allowed us to evaluate the suitability of SWS and HL as feedstock for the subsequent energy utilization.
