In this study, through orthogonal experiments design, the influences of ultrasonic pretreatment (frequency, power and treatment time) on co-pyrolysis and catalytic pyrolysis of municipal solid waste and paper mill sludge were explored. The differential thermogravimetry curves became steeper and the...
