Composite recycling based on pyrolysis is usually only focused the recovery of fibres without plastic matrix valorisation. This work presents application authors' patented process towards H2 rich gas generation to two end-of-life epoxy composite waste and results are compared only-pyrolysis experiments. Main show: (1) yield increase in detriment collected liquid phase, (2) close 50 vol.%, (3) 90 vol.% jointly with CO CH4. Although halogens halide form need be eliminated from gases, has potential enhance plants' profitability.
