Abstract

Plastic plays an important role in our daily lives due to its versatility, light weight and low production cost. The amount of plastic waste is growing every year and with that comes an environmental concern regarding this problem. Pyrolysis as a tertiary recycling process is presented as a solution. In this work, the pyrolysis of hospital plastic waste products was investigated using thermal non catalytic cracking techniques. The experimental work was carried out using a pyrolysis reactor operating under an inert atmosphere at 450°C. Results indicated that the waste plastic is able to give the yield of liquid product by using a pyrolysis reactor. The obtained product was fuel liked liquid heavy oil which was viscous and had a yellow color. The fuel properties of the diesel-range distillate (diesel fraction) were comparable to other conventional fuel and found its calorific value was 31 MJ/kg.
医院塑料废弃物热裂解研究
塑料因其用途广泛、重量轻、生产成本低,在我们的日常生活中起着重要的作用。塑料垃圾的数量每年都在增长,随之而来的是对这个问题的环境关注。热解作为一种三级循环过程提出了解决方案。本文采用热非催化裂化技术对医院废塑料的热解进行了研究。实验采用450℃惰性气氛下的热解反应器进行。结果表明,废塑料在热解反应器中可以得到液体产品的产率。所得产品为类燃料液体重油,粘稠,呈黄色。柴油馏分油(柴油馏分)的燃料特性与其他传统燃料相当,其热值为31 MJ/kg。
