Abstract

Because of its versatility to produce a mixture of solid, liquid, and gaseous products in various quantities depending on operational factors, pyrolysis technology has attracted a lot of attention recently. Additionally, it opens up the prospect of increasing the materials' energy density and transforming them into high-value products and biofuels. In the current study, a variety of biomass wastes from the food industry and mechanical-biological treatment facilities were chosen to be treated with thermochemical pyrolysis. With particular focus on the bio-oil, the impact of the operating conditions on the yield and composition of the pyrolysis products was investigated. From waste from the brewing industry and discarded potato chips, a higher bio-oil yield is obtained. In addition, its lower ash content and higher calorific value contribute to improve the properties of bio-oil. On the other hand, the solid fraction predominates in the pyrolysis of urban solid wates. For this reason, chemical and textural analysis was used to characterize the resultant solid fraction, biochar. The biochar has undergone physical and chemical processing to produce adsorbents for carbon dioxide capture and possibly other applications.

Bibliometric impact. Analysis of the contribution and dissemination channel

The work has been published in the journal Tecnología En Marcha, and although the journal is classified in the quartile Q4 (Agencia WoS (JCR)), its regional focus and specialization in Multidisciplinary Sciences, give it significant recognition in a specific niche of scientific knowledge at an international level.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-09-12:

  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 13 (PlumX).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
