COURSE DESCRIPTION
The compact course “Circular Carbon: Pyrolysis & Gasification” will enable participants to obtain an overview of circular carbon technologies for biogenic feedstocks and municipal waste streams, as well as opportunities and challenges for their integration into existing chemical value chains. The course extends over two days, including theoretical and practical elements.
Introduction to Circular Carbon and Chemical Recycling
Participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of thermochemical conversion processes involving pyrolysis and gasification as well as typical key performance indicators used. Different feedstock materials for circular carbon processes and typical methods to characterize their properties will be introduced and explained. An overview of chemical recycling principles will provide participants with an understanding of general chemical recycling pathways and associated representative technologies.
Industrial Circular Carbon Technologies & Integration Possibilities
Participants will obtain in-depth insights into different pyrolysis and gasification processes, their industrial deployment as well as integration possibilities into existing chemical production value chains. An impression of the specialized laboratory, bench-scale and pilot-scale facilities for chemical recycling at the Institute of Energy Process Engineering & Chemical Engineering, TU Bergakademie Freiberg and the Fraunhofer Institute IKTS group for Circular Carbon Technologies in Freiberg rounds up the course.
