It is reported that researchers at the University of Agricultural Sciences, GKVK, have installed a pyrolysis unit to convert plastic and biomass into valuable manure and pesticide. The process is found to be yielding a range of useful products. Like when applied to plastic waste, it produces char, a key material in asphalt and brick manufacturing. It also generates syngas, a clean-burning gas that fuels the pyrolysis unit itself, and bio-oils that can be used for various energy applications. Processing biomass through pyrolysis produces biochar. According to UAS, the hydrogen gas produced during the process can also be an income generating option. Biochar can be used in industrial applications like water purification, air filtration and production of activated carbon.
