Combustion performance and emission characteristics on HCCI engine of waste plastic pyrolysis oil biodiesel blends with external PFI and vaporiser

ABSTRACT

Analysis of plastic oil obtained from waste plastic through pyrolysis process, as an alternative to biodiesel is presented in this paper. The HCCI engine is considered for experimental validation of combustion performance and emission characteristics. To accumulate pyrolysis oil as fuel, the design modifications were made in external mixture formation on the existing computerised 4-stroke, single cylinder, water cooled, direct injection kirloskar diesel engine connected with eddy current dynamometer to satisfy HCCI conditions. HCCI engine can be worked on wide assortment of fuels beginning from diesel to different blends (WPPO 5%,10%,15% and 20% by volume) of biodiesel .The designed additional device connected to the engine is utilised for fuel vaporisation and mixture arrangement. In the experimental study, the combustion results were initiate to be of 39.69 % higher Rate of Heat Release (RoHR) for biodiesel HCCI as compared with diesel HCCI. Higher brake thermal efficiency (BTE) was found 37 % without exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) at WPPO 20 % biodiesel blend. And also found 50 % and 65 % reduction in NOx emission and 18 % and 28 % reduction in smoke opacity are obtained for biodiesel vapour induction without EGR and biodiesel vapour induction with 15 % EGR as compared with diesel fuel. The CO (0.34 %), and UHC (2.15 %) emissions are increases with 15 % EGR, but the emissions are within the standard limits specified by the emissions standards.

Comparison of the weight-loss degradability of various biodegradable plastics under laboratory composting conditions

Eight kinds of biodegradable plastics were compared for their degradability in controlled laboratory composting conditions. A thin film of each plastic was mixed into the composting material, and weight-loss degradability was calculated from the weight changes of the film during composting. It was found that weight-loss degradability strongly depended on the specific kind of biodegradable plastic; two were very high, four moderate, and the remaining two very slight. The most easily degradable plastic degraded by as much as 81.4% over 8 days of composting. By comparing the weight-loss degradability with ultimate degradability, which is defined as a molar ratio of carbon loss as CO₂ to the carbon contained in the biodegradable plastic, the order of the ease of degradation of the biodegradable plastics differed.

Chronic renal failure among farm families in cascade irrigation systems in Sri Lanka associated with elevated dietary cadmium levels in rice and freshwater fish (Tilapia)

Chronic renal failure (CRF), in the main agricultural region under reservoir based cascade irrigation in Sri Lanka has reached crisis proportion. Over 5,000 patients in the region are under treatment for CRF. The objective of this study is to establish the etiology of the CRF. Concentrations of nine heavy metals were determined in sediments, soils of reservoir peripheries, water and Nelumbo nucifera (lotus) grown in five major reservoirs that supply irrigation water. All five reservoirs carried higher levels of dissolved cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe) and lead (Pb). Dissolved Cd in reservoir water ranged from 0.03 to 0.06 mg/l. Sediment Cd concentration was 1.78-2.45 mg/kg. No arsenic (As) was detected. Cd content in lotus rhizomes was 253.82 mg/kg. The Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intake (PTWI) of Cd based on extreme exposure of rice is 8.702-15.927 mug/kg body weight (BW) for different age groups, 5-50 years. The PTWI of Cd due to extreme exposure of fish is 6.773-12.469 mug/kg BW. The PTWI on a rice staple with fish is 15.475-28.396 mug/kg BW. The mean urinary cadmium (UCd) concentration in CRF patients of age group 40-60 years was 7.58 mug Cd/g creatinine and in asymptomatic persons UCd was 11.62 mug Cd/g creatinine, indicating a chronic exposure to Cd. The possible source of Cd in reservoir sediments and water is Cd-contaminated agrochemicals. The CRF prevalent in north central Sri Lanka is a result of chronic dietary intake of Cd, supported by high natural levels of fluoride in drinking water, coupled with neglecting of routine de-silting of reservoirs for the past 20 years.     

太湖塑料添加剂时空分布和生态风险评价

为揭示新冠疫情背景下太湖塑料添加剂的时空分布和风险水平,研究了典型的双酚类、邻苯二甲酸酯类和苯并三唑类等塑料添加剂在太湖表层水体的赋存情况.对全太湖19个监测点位进行4个季度的监测,并评估其潜在的生态风险.结果表明,自2020年秋季至2021年夏季,双酚A（BPA）、邻苯二甲酸二乙酯（DEP）、邻苯二甲酸二（2-甲氧基）乙酯（DMEP）、邻苯二甲基丁基苄基酯（BBP）和苯并三唑（UV-328）在太湖表层水体中均有检出.DEP、 DMEP、 BBP、 BPA和UV-328的检出率分别为100%、 97%、 58%、 98%和7%.对比近年来的塑料添加剂污染水平可以发现,太湖的各类塑料添加剂污染水平并未随疫情背景下塑料制品用量的剧增而加重,反而因人类活动减缓而呈现下降趋势.太湖塑料添加剂检出浓度有明显的季度差异,春、夏季平均值高于秋、冬季,分别是104.7、 100.3、 30.7和29.9ng·L^-1.其在空间分布上也具有一定的差异性,主要表现为高浓度点位聚集在太湖西南沿岸.生态风险评估结果表明,太湖塑料添加剂的赋存对藻类存在低风险,比例达30%,秋、冬季风险性高于...     

共混塑料在海水中的光降解及海洋环境风险

共混塑料因其用途广泛且价格低廉,生产和使用量逐渐增加,然而共混塑料在海水中光降解及其海洋环境风险尚不明确.选取聚丙烯/热塑性淀粉共混塑料（PP/TPS）和聚乳酸/对苯二甲酸-己二酸丁二醇酯/热塑性淀粉共混塑料（PLA/PBAT/TPS）为研究对象,单一聚合物塑料聚丙烯（PP）和聚乳酸（PLA）作为对照,探究共混塑料在海水中光降解后微塑料（MPs）的形成和物理化学性质的变化.MPs的粒径分布显示,与PP和PLA相比,PP/TPS和PLA/PBAT/TPS光降解后容易产生尺寸更小的颗粒,主要原因是共混塑料机械性能和抗紫外线能力较差.共混塑料光降解后表面出现更多裂纹和褶皱,表面形貌发生明显变化,而PP和PLA变化不明显.ATR-FTIR光谱显示PP/TPS和PLA/PBAT/TPS光降解后热塑性淀粉（TPS）的特征峰减小,表明共混塑料的淀粉组分降解.C 1s光谱表明,老化共混塑料含有更少的—OH,进一步证实了TPS的光降解.以上结果表明PP/TPS和PLA/PBAT/TPS比PP和PLA光降解程度更高,从而产生更多小粒径MPs.综上所述,共混塑料可能比单一聚合物塑料对海洋环境风险更高,对共混塑料的生产和使用应谨慎.

存余垃圾中废旧塑料性能演变及资源转化探讨

通过对全国范围内不同地域填埋场中存余垃圾组分含量以及存余垃圾中废旧塑料性能变化进行分析,发现存余垃圾中塑料占比较高,且填埋时间小于7a时,其力学及热学性能与未经填埋处理的原生废旧塑料性能基本无差异,具有较高的资源属性,但污染程度较高,难以直接进行高值化利用.文章进一步分析了国内现有清洁提质和处理处置技术,并针对存余垃圾中废旧塑料特性,提出一条由多效组合洁净技术与直接挤压成型工艺相结合的新型适用性清洁与高值化技术路线.     

松木屑/烟煤粉/PVC粉混合制备成型燃料

以松木屑/PVC粉/烟煤粉为原料,在150℃下采用不同压力和不同原料配比混合制备成型燃料,研究不同原料配比和压力对成型后颗粒的初始密度、松弛密度和耐摔强度等物理品质的影响.结果表明,2种或3种原料混合制备成型燃料的稳定性和耐摔强度均高于单一原料.虽然成型燃料的成型密度稳定性和耐摔强度随着压力的增加而升高,但是当压力达到15MPa后,耐摔强度的增加趋势并不是很明显.考虑到热压机能耗随着压力增加而增加的因素,15MPa可以确定为最佳成型压力.15MPa下,成型燃料在混合比例（松木屑：烟煤粉：PVC粉）为1：1：3时密度稳定在1.408g/cm³;耐摔强度在1：1：2时达到最大值99.99%.
