Abstract

The dataset presented in this article is the supplementary data for the research article titled "The combustion of polyolefins in the inert and catalytic fluidised beds", in which polyethylene combustion in the cenosphere fluidised bed were investigated. The use of cenospheres as a bed material made it possible to free sink of PE particles in the bed and rule out its combustion in freeboard. It also lead to elimination of soot formation. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of flue gases were performed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR, Gasmet DX-4000). This data article provides detailed information on changes in product concentration at intervals of a few seconds.
