Özet

This study investigated the impact of catalysts on the pyrolysis of Crambe orientalis at 300, 400, and 500 °C. The experiments were carried out with (Al, Fe, MCM-41, MCM-41/Al, and MCM-41/Fe) and without catalyst. MCM-41, MCM-41/ Al, and MCM-41/Fe were synthesized through the hydrothermal method and characterized by SEM–EDX, SEM–EDS, and XRD techniques. GC–MS and elemental analysis were conducted to examine the liquid products obtained from the pyrolysis process, with and without catalysts. The study was aimed at determining the infuence of metal powder and support catalysts on product yield and quality. The results indicate that MCM-41/Al and MCM-41/Fe catalysts exhibit greater catalytic efciency than Al and Fe metal powders. The use of MCM-41, MCM-41/Al, and MCM-41/Fe catalysts resulted in the production of high-energy value products during 500 °C trials, with energy values of 23.67, 23.03, and 22.9
