It is a systems solution framework based on three principles: eliminate waste and pollution, keep products and materials in use, and compensate for natural systems exploitation. In this direction, in the last decades, there has been a vast development towards the treatment and recovery of plastic materials. Among all these emerging alternatives, pyrolysis has proven to be very promising from several points of view for the upcycling of plastic waste (Pacheco-López et al., 2022). Despite its economic and environmental benefits, pyrolysis is an energy-demanding process (above 2MJ per kg of plastic waste), and combustion is one of the most economical energy-supply alternatives due to the higher cost of other energy sources (such as electric power). In consequence, even though the entire process might be environmentally favorable, there is still a considerable amount of carbon dioxide emissions (around 150g of CO2 per kg of plastic waste). To promote a carbon neutral, or even carbon negative, process, the coupling of carbon capture technologies and pyrolysis arises as a suitable solution to improve the process from the environmental perspective. Currently, several alternatives are available for CO2 separation including capture from post-combustion, pre-combustion, oxycombustion, chemical looping combustion, as well as ambient air capture. The most commercially available and mature post-combustion capture process is chemical absorption, usually with aqueous amine solutions. Among them, monoethanolamine (MEA) has good CO2 transfer rates, has a low price, and is biodegradable. However, it may suffer from toxicity and solvent losses due to evaporation and degradation; additionally, at higher concentrations, the MEA solution is highly corrosive to the equipment. Therefore finding alternative CO2 absorbents is an arising challenge (Wang and Song, 2020). The captured CO2 is usually stored, but it can be utilized to synthesize valuable chemicals (i.e., CCU or carbon capture and utilization) such as carbon monoxide, formic acid, methane, methanol, ethanol, or ethylene via electroreduction. However, these technologies are currently underdeveloped, and it is hard to predict their performance at an industrial scale (Somoza-Tornos et al., 2021).","PeriodicalId":336908,"journal":{"name":"15th Mediterranean Congress of Chemical Engineering (MeCCE-15) Abstracts Publication","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122440614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
