In a one-ton batch pyrolysis unit, scrap tyres were pyrolysed to produce an oil, char, gas and steel product. The derived oil was analysed for fuel properties, including calorific value, elemental analysis, sulfur, nitrogen, chloride and fluoride content. In addition, a single oil droplet combustion study was carried out and the oil was also analysed in detail for its content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Comparison of the tyre oil fuel properties with those of petroleum-derived fuels was made. The oil was combusted in an 18.3 kW ceramic-lined, oil-fired, spray burner furnace, 1.6 m in length x 0.5 m internal diameter. The emissions of NO., SO\*, particulate and total unburned hydrocarbons were determined in relation to excess oxygen levels. In addition, the solvent organic fraction of the soot was extracted and analysed for PAH concentration and compared with the PAH content of the original fuel. Throughout the combustion tests, comparison of the emissions was made with the combustion of diesel fuel as a representative of a petroleum-derived fuel with similar properties. The results are presented.
