Abstract:
... Thermal and kinetic decomposition of orange waste have been investigated by simultaneous TGA–DSC and TGA–FTIR analysis techniques under nitrogen atmosphere. Thermal profile degradation can be interpreted as the resultant of multiple, parallel and simultaneous reactions, related to: (i) dehydration process for temperatures ≤120°C; (ii) pyrolytic cracking, from 125 to 450°C, stage where the ligno-ce ...
