[Display omitted] • An innovative manner was used in the co-pyrolysis for more CO 2 consumption. • CP CO2 evaluation was innovatively constructed and realized in the CO 2 -looping system. • More CO 2 entered into pyrolysis products by Ca-based additives for improving CP CO2. • CaO not only improved CP CO2 by 21.2% but also reduced the total HMs at 500 ℃. • Mechanism for CO 2 assisted Ca-based on CP CO2 with temperature was proposed. In this study, the CO 2 -looping system was firstly attempted to build for exploring the effect of calcium-based (Ca-based) additives on pyrolytic characteristics and products in co-pyrolysis of sewage sludge (SS) and biomass. Then, an innovation method for the consumption of CO 2 (CP CO2) evaluation was proposed and carried out in the CO 2 -looping system, in which it was evaluated based on the syngas volume and CO 2 proportion. The results revealed that the addition of CaO and Ca(OH) 2 could significantly improve CP CO2 by 21.2% in the co-pyrolysis of 500 ℃, while the CaCO 3 addition decreased the CP CO2 by 1.0%. Besides, the co-pyrolysis temperature more than 700 ℃ would play more significant role on the CP CO2 than the addition of Ca-based additives. Then the effect of Ca-based types on biochar characteristics was also identified accompanied by the bio-oil composition. Results showed that the CaO and Ca(OH) 2 additives not only increased biochar mass and pH, but also enhanced the dissolved organic carbon content and the variety of dissolved organic matter, and reduced the total HMs content. Meanwhile, it was 15 types of components that was identified in bio-oil by NIST mass spectral library, found that the intensity of heptadecanenitrile and estra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17 beta-ol was influenced by Ca-based additives. Moreover, the CaO and Ca(OH) 2 played important roles for improving the CP CO2 in the CO 2 -looping system, which was further verified by Fact Sage. Finally, the mechanism for the Ca-based additives on CP CO2 was proposed at different co-pyrolysis temperatures. These findings can widen paths for biochar application and development of CO 2 capture materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
