Effect of calcination method on the product distribution from catalytic degradation of polystyrene in the presence of 1% Pd/Al2O3 catalysts

Incipient wetness impregnation method was used to prepare 1% Pd/Al2O3 catalyst which was calcined at 500 oC for 16 hr as well as in a domestic microwave at 650W for 5 and 10 min. These catalysts were tested in the catalytic degradation of polystyrene (PS) into liquid fuels at catalyst to PS ratio of...
