The current global energy crisis is driving the need to search for alternative raw materials and fuels that will be able ensure continuity of strategic industries, such as steel industry. A chance reduce consumption traditional (e.g., natural gas) utilise potential gases from thermal conversion waste, and, in particular, pyrolysis gas. Unfortunately, despite its high calorific value, this gas not always suitable direct, energy-related use. limitation type waste subjected pyrolysis, particularly plastics, rubber textiles. Due above, article proposes co-combustion a ratio 1:10 with pusher reheating furnace employed heat charge before forming. chemical composition flue generated during combustion alone various wastes was modelled, namely, two types refuse-derived fuel (RDF) mixture pine chips polypropylene alder polypropylene. calculations were performed using Ansys Chemkin-Pro software (ver. 2021 R1). computer simulations showed addition most analysed variants did significantly affect gases. For biomass (PP), higher concentrations CO H2 unburned hydrocarbons observed than other mixtures. reason differences explained by conducting formation path analysis sensitivity selected products.
