Abstract

Plastic production is steadily increasing worldwide, faster than options for recycling wastes that contain large amounts of plastics. The behavior of plastic waste during thermal and catalytic decomposition was studied. The effect of hydrocracking catalyst weight on percent conversion to liquid fuels was examined. FCC and hydrocracking catalysts (HC-1) produced minimum amount of gases while NiMo catalyst gave the highest. FCC and HC-1 catalysts were most effective in producing hexane soluble fraction. Iron oxide catalyst was least effective. The optimum conditions considered were 430°C under 950 psi H₂ pressure for the duration of 2 hr. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 15th Annual Saudi-Japanese Symposium: Catalysts in Petroleum Refining and Petrochemicals (Dhahran, Saudi Arabia 11/27-28/2005).
