Thermal-Conversion of Hydrocarbons on Solid Matrices
The paper examines the influence of organic and inorganic matrices of different structure and origin on the thermal conversion of hydrocarbons such as polycyclic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and alkanes to non-volatile products (process known as "charring"). Independence on the solid-structure different reaction pathways are discussed. The charring activity was measured as a function of matrix type and activation temperature. The activity of sediment ash as a special inorganic matrix is caused by reasons other than high surface area and acidic centres. In this case a redox behaviour was observed.
