title: [The effect of compression treatment on RDF pyrolysis].
abstract: The micropore surface area and micropore structure of refuse derived fuel (RDF) was changed by compression treatment. Thermogravimetric curves can be obtained at different pyrolysis temperatures, to estimate some of the kinetic parameters of different samples. A number of data collected and analysis was presented in the paper, together with the rules of kinetic parameters and discussion on the influence of the character of RDF's micropore structure. The reaction rates of the compressed samples were much lower than those of the uncompressed samples. And the optimal reaction temperature was 550 degrees C-650 degrees C. There was a compensation effect between activation energy and the Arrhenius parameters of some compressed samples. The activation energy decreases and the Arrhenius parameters are ten times less than uncompressed samples.
