Resource recovery from waste polystyrene via thermo-catalytic depolymerization
Original language description
Polystyrene (PS) is the fourth-most abundantly produced commodity plastic. It is widely used in packaging, construction, electrical and electronics and medical equipment, and consequently a large amount of PS waste is generated. Chemical or feedstock recycling is considered as an environmentally friendly approach which can be used for the treatment of waste plastics. With this approach, waste polymeric materials can be converted into their original monomers and other valuable chemicals. Chemical recycling of waste polymeric materials can be realized by thermal or thermo-catalytic depolymerization. The present work deals with the thermo-catalytic depolymerization of waste PS using the operating conditions that were determined in our previous work. The pyrolysis experiments were performed in a lab-scale test trig with a horizontal tube reactor heated with a cylindrical heating jacket. The pyrolysis oil was analyzed using a GC-MS system.
