Plastic Waste Recycling

A pilot plant for the high temperature pyrolysis of polymers to recycle plastic waste to valuable products based on rotating cone reactor (RCR) technology. The RCR used in this pilot plant, the continuous RCR was an improved version of the bench-scale RCR previously used for the pyrolysis of biomass, PE and PP. 9 refs. [Pg.64]

Details are given of processes currently under development in Europe and the US for recycling plastics waste into feedstocks. In particular, the efforts of BP Chemicals and Shell are reported who have plans to form consortia of chemical companies. Problems associated with costs and logistics are discussed, which are preventing full-scale commercialisation. [Pg.106]

Among the most frequently used nitrogen containing polymers in electrical, electronic, and automotive applications are PA and ABS. Pyrolysis proved to be a suitable method for recycling plastic waste. [Pg.252]

First, the fuel produced from recycled plastic waste needs to be exempted, at least partially, from tax and second, agreements with fuel commercial companies need to be reached in order for them to accept the produced fuel in their fuel pools, with the advantage of lower tax for this fraction. [Pg.205]

This has particular significance due to the fact that the materials came from recycled plastic wastes. This not only alleviates pollution of the environment, but also reduces the cost of the polymer concrete. These two kinds of recycled polymer can complement each other to produce excellent properties. [Pg.28]

In contrast to this example, we can say that the use of recycled plastic waste is limited by the difficulty in transporting it as little as possible, sorting it for the lowest possible cost and regenerating the material with as few operations and additives as possible. Another limiting factor is that it is often difficult for a transformer to obtain recycled plastics of consistent and clearly known quahty. [Pg.222]

In the same line of recycling plastic waste without the aid of compatibilizers, the family of homogenization and sohd-state pulverization processes can be found (Daren 1998 DubmUe D Orhcel 1993 La Mantia et al. 1996 Khait et al. 1999 Khait et al. 2001) essentially based on the fractionation of plastic waste into fine particles and formation of cross-polymers induced by shear activated reactions that... [Pg.1893]

Rubber matrices have commonly been used as a second phase to improve the toughness of brittle thermoplastic materials, such as polypropylene and polyethylene. These systems, commonly referred to as polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers (TPOs), are a special class of thermoplastic elastomers that combine the processing characteristic of plastics at elevated temperatures with the physical properties of conventional elastomers at service temperature, playing an increasingly important role in the polymer material industry. Polyolefin blends attract additional interest due to the possibility of recycling plastic wastes, avoiding the complex and expensive processes of separation of the different components. [Pg.198]

The success or failure of an organisation can be influenced by the type of innovations and developments which are available in the field of recycling plastics waste. Innovative recycling methods enable the... [Pg.71]

The plastics waste process helps to identify closed-loop structures and the process of recycling plastics waste does not run in just one direction, but an effect usually feeds back to change one or more of the causes , and that the causes themselves affect each other. It is an important part of the recycling process not to prioritise causes as being most or least important, but rather to understand how waste composition and quantity may change over time. [Pg.89]

As is clear in this chapter, the recycling of plastics waste has increasingly been accepted as a response to a complex situation and the default understanding of this situation has not led to adequate action. However, despite the accepted value and ease of recycling plastics waste, most individuals have a great deal of difficulty in systemically recycling waste. [Pg.89]

Recycle plastics waste by investigating new areas of product application. [Pg.135]

Jacob Liedner I referred to it in my Separation lecture. However, the most important is to find the right applications for the recycled plastic waste. Here, imagination is necessary. For example, some years ago in Canada, two companies produced plastic lumber . One sold it as a substitute for wood and went broke, the other marketed it as a material for transport containers that can be steam-cleanable and made profit. [Pg.471]
