摘要：

The co-pyrolysis of used lubricant oil blended with plastic waste, namely high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), and polystyrene (PS), to produce a diesel-like fuel was studied. The proportions of the raw materials were optimized using laboratory scale pyrolysis at atmospheric pressure at a final temperature of 450 degrees C without a catalyst. The ratios of used lubricant oil (Oil) and plastic waste (Oil:HDPE:PP:PS) investigated were 50:30:20:0, 50:30:0:20, 50:0:30:20, and 50:30:10:10 by weight. It was found that the oil produced using an Oil:HDPE:PP:PS ratio of 50:30:20:0 exhibited most of the properties of standard diesel oil as specified by the Ministry of Energy (Thailand), except for its flash point, which was lower than the standard. Therefore, this proportion was utilized for the scaled-up testing in the co-pyrolysis prototype (10 kg/day). Three reactor temperature ranges (less than 400 degrees C, 400-425 degrees C, and 425-450 degrees C) were studied, and the properties of the oil products were analysed. The oil products produced at 400-425 degrees C exhibited diesel-like fuel properties.
