RECYCLING OF PLASTIC WASTE BY THE PYROLYSIS METHOD

Chemical recycling of plastic waste can be a useful complement to mechanical recycling to achieve the required rate of plastics recycling and create a climate-neutral and resource-saving circular economy. Various mixed plastic wastes to be recycled in the future are investigated under fully uniform intermediate pyrolysis conditions characterized by moderate heating rates and pyrolysis temperatures. The distribution of the product and the selected properties of the product are determined, and the mass and energy balance of the process is obtained. Product yield and composition are highly dependent on pyrolyzed residues. All results indicate that pyrolysis is a suitable process for obtaining chemical feedstocks from various complex mixed plastic wastes. The main mass and energy balances for chemical recycling of mixed plastic waste by pyrolysis method were determined. Products for recycling raw materials can be obtained from all investigated plastic waste. Product quality often depends on raw materials. The energy requirement for heating, melting, pyrolysis and evaporation is about 5% of the calorific value of the raw material. It has been demonstrated that 50 to 75% of the raw carbon can be recovered in the condensate and reintroduced into the value chain in the chemical industry.
