ABSTRACT
The present study deals with effect of reactor
inlet temperature, catalyst weight on the volumetric flowrate from the waste
plastic pyrolysis plant as well as their optimization. From optimization study,
the most operating parameters affected the increase in volumetric flowrate is
reactor inlet temperature followed by catalyst weight. Increasing the reactor
inlet temperature increase more yield of petroleum product from the plant due
to the increasing catalyst activity. The optimal operating conditions of
reactor inlet temperature and catalyst weight were 379.278°COC and 1.25 gram
respectively. The product yield with respect to maximum liquid fuel was 83.580
% at volumetric flowrate of 1 lit./hr at input of 2kg/hr of thermoplastics into
the waste plastics pyrolysis plant. The diesel range hydrocarbons obtained from
the plant are C10-C13.
