摘要
Accumulation of enormous amounts of plastic waste produced all over the world has negative implications on the environment. Pyrolysis of plastic waste could have an important role in converting this waste into economically valuable hydrocarbons, which can be used either as fuels or as feed stock in the petrochemical industry. End product yields and properties depend on the plastic waste composition. The presence of PE (polyethylene) increased alkane content, whilst PS (polystyrene) led to higher aromatic content in the end product. The presence of PP (polypropylene) favoured alkene formation. Therefore, both PS and PP increased the octane number of end product. Therefore, the desired end product can be obtained by adequate blending of plastic wastes. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
