In this work, Cu-SrO bimetallic catalyst was synthesised and examined for catalytic co-pyrolysis of ironbark (IB) and waste cooking oil (WCO) using Py-GC/MS. The effect of catalyst supports (ZSM-5, Y-zeolite, activated carbon, Al₂O₃, and ZrO₂) on aromatic hydrocarbons yield was studied. The effect of catalyst support on the selectivity of gasoline (C8-C14), diesel (C15-C17), and heavy oil (>C20) components of bio-oil were studied. Non-catalytic co-pyrolysis of IB and WCO produced a heavy oil component of 58.7% (>C20). SrO initiated a ketonization reaction that converted carboxylic acids into new C–C bonds. The addition of Cu effectively promoted secondary cracking and aromatization reactions enhancing the hydrocarbon yield. Cu-SrO/ZSM-5 and Cu-SrO/Y-zeolite produced low acid content of 4.43% and 12.5%, respectively. Overall, the bimetallic catalyst Cu-SrO/ZSM-5 significantly increased the amount of C8-C14 compounds to 87.28% and reduced compounds over C20 to 1.19%.
