Abstract

Plastic waste has emerged as a global environmental concern, with vast quantities of plastic materials being discarded and ending up in landfills or polluting natural ecosystems. Conventional waste management practices often fall short in effectively dealing with this mounting problem. As a result, alternative and sustainable solutions are being sought to address the challenges posed by plastic waste. One such solution gaining increasing attention is the waste plastic to oil extraction through the pyrolysis process. The objective of this study is to maximize the proportion liquid range product from pyrolysis of hydrocarbon plastics. In order to optimize the liquid range product, the effects of factors which influence the pyrolysis process need quantifying. Many of these factors affecting the distribution of the products have been already identified in various studies. However, some of the factors cannot be controlled in the process under the reaction conditions. Those adjustable factors will be controlled to optimize the process and to achieve the study objective.
