Determination of plastic pollutants in solid biofuels

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The studies presented in this publication demonstrate that with the use of appropriate coupled analytical techniques and confirmed polymer-based markers (groups of compounds), it is possible to detect polymer contamination in the tested fuel even at levels as low as 0.1% w/w. In this study, the results of using Py-GC-MS as a useful analytical technique for confirmation of the presence of waste plastic pollutants in solid biofuels are reported. To identify the main markers of polymeric origins, polymers obtained from a company engaged in the separation and processing of plastics in . . .
