Abstract

Catalytic cracking considered as the best alternative to plastic wastes recycling, accordingly investigated converting mixture of polymers (High and low density poly ethylene, poly propylene, poly styrene, poly ethylene terephthalate, poly vinyl chloride) into middle distillate in presence of novel catalyst AIT-100. In this work we follow of mass fraction in waste management department for real data, as we provided a semi batch reactor at constant pressure to processing. Finally more than 95% of raw materials converts into middle distillate products that include 12% gas, ranging between C1 and C4 and 83% liquid hydrocarbon, ranging between C5-C11+ with a balance of residue. The optimum condition for this yield reports at a temperature of 440 ºC and 10% of catalyst w/w% at atmospheric pressure.
