MANCHENO, Myriam et al. PHYSICOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF LIQUID FUELS OBTAINED IN THE PYROLYSIS PROCESS OF VULCANIZED RUBBER. La Granja [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.2, pp.84-105. ISSN 1390-8596.  https://doi.org/10.17163/lgr.n26.2017.08.

Analysis of the pyrolytic fuel (liquid fuels obtained from the pyrolysis process of used tires), the physicochemical characteristics correspond to gasoline, kerosene and diesel fractions. To determine the environmental sustainability of its use, combustion tests were developed in a diesel test engine (800 and 2500 rpm), in order to establish the comparison with a commercial ecuadorian diesel. The obtained results proved based on the analysis of emissions and combustion failures that this fuel cannot be a direct replacement for diesel.
