Microwave Pyrolysis of Peat: Optimization of Oversized Reactor and Experimental Results

The paper presents the results of microwave pyrolysis of a peat in the oversized reactor powered by an industrial magnetron at a frequency of 2.45 GHz and a power level of 1 kW. The components of the RF pyrolysis complex have been upgraded to ensure its continuous operation. Samples of the gas, liquid, and solid phases were obtained and analyzed using the optimized set-up.
