“…In addition that the presence of catalyst and type of catalyst are generally not important at elevated temperatures. Farhat Ali et al [58] were found that the PS material with ZSM-5 catalyst produced higher yield of 91.5% of oil at 430 o C temperature. whereas the results of mixed plastic material (HDPE, LDPE, PS and PP) with ZSM-5 catalyst gives the better results of 78.5% oil yield compared to other single material like HDPE,LDPE and PP.…”

The rapid growth of the world population which leads to increase demand of plastic in many sectors such as construction, medical, engineering applications, automotive, aerospace and many food industries for packing purpose. These rapid populations of plastic create some serious issues to the environment and living beings. The plastics are non- degradable and emit poisonous gases during burning. In recent years, many researches being conducted to resolve the disposal issues of waste plastics and trying to convert it into useful products. The plastic is a material consists of any wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic compounds, which are long molecules built around chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The conversion of waste plastics to hydrocarbon (HC) fuel is an effective idea for disposing of waste plastics. It will be controlled plastic population and fulfill the needs of petroleum fuel in the future. As per the survey, the fossil fuels run out earlier in 2088 due to drastic growth of automobiles and high production cost. The waste plastic contains hydrocarbon with calorific value of 41- 47MJ and it is almost equal to the calorific value of fossil fuels. There are many methods being used to extract liquid HC fuel from waste plastics and it has been reviewed elaborately in this paper. It also reviews composition of various plastics like polyethylene terephthalate, high density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride and polypropylene polystyrene and analyse their properties. In addition, it includes the selection of plastic and catalyst for extraction process, research gap in the existing extraction methods and the effect temperature and process timing on oil yield.

“…Figure 3 shows the appearance of DPO products as a function of operating temperature dependence. The distilled plastic oil grade depends on the distillation temperature because the components of plastic oil have different boiling points [16]. During the distillation process, these components are separated based on their boiling point differences.…”

This study aims to obtain an alternative fuel from plastic pyrolytic oil (PPO) that has similar properties to gasoline and diesel fuel. The process carried out is distillation, which is heating the PPO at a certain temperature so that light and heavy molecules will evaporate and turn into distillate plastic oil (DPO). The effect of temperature on the quality of the DPO was observed based on the color of the obtained DPO. Temperatures ranging from 120 to 350 °C were examined in this study. The cleaner DPO was produced at a temperature of about 120 °C, which indicated a light molecule of hydrocarbon similar to gasoline, while a little dark color was produced when the temperature was increased to 350 °C, which indicated heavy molecules of hydrocarbon similar to diesel. This research shows that distillation can produce alternative fuels with different grades depending on the applied operating temperature.

“…Comparing the performance of the different catalysts, these researchers concluded that Co/Ac catalyst showed the best performance concerning the liquid yield and quality of the liquid. The hydrocracking of blends of LDPE, HDPE, PP, and PS with an atmospheric bottom residue was studied by Nahid et al 233 and by Siddiqui and Redhwi. 234 Overall, these researchers determined that both reaction temperature and contact time strongly influenced the process.…”

Waste Refinery: The Valorization of Waste Plastics and End-of-Life Tires in Refinery Units. A Review

This review collects a wide range of initiatives and results that expose the potential of the refineries to be converted into waste refineries. Thus, they will use their current units for the valorization of consumer society wastes (waste plastics and end-of-life tires in particular) that are manufactured with petroleum derivatives. The capacity, technological development, and versatility of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) and hydroprocessing units make them appropriate for achieving this goal. Polyolefinic plastics (polyethylene and polypropylene), the waxes obtained in their fast pyrolysis, and the tire pyrolysis oils can be cofed together with the current streams of the industrial units. Conventional refineries have the opportunity of operating as waste refineries cofeeding these alternative feeds and tailoring the properties of the fuels and raw materials produced to be adapted to commercial requirements within the oil economy frame. This strategy will contribute in a centralized and rational way to the recycling of the consumer society wastes on a large scale. Furthermore, the use of already existing and, especially, depreciated units for the production of fuels and raw materials (such as light olefins and aromatics) promotes the economy of the recycling process.
