“…Pyrolysis oil produced from plastics had no similar properties like pyrolysis oil from waste tires because it had lower Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Sulphur content which led to a lower calorific value. This value of calorific value is significantly lower than produced pyrolysis oils in other works [22,50,51]. Produced diesel from pyrolysis of waste plastics had very similar parameters like standard diesel from petrol station and it was also experimentally smoothly used in diesel engine in tractor.…”

“…The main purpose of this present study is the comparison of the liquid product yields from PE, PET, PP, and PS under the same pyrolysis conditions and the investigation of the pyrolysis temperature effect at this liquid product yields and heat values. Also, the effect of plastic waste pre-washing process is investigated where the prewashing removes impurities from the waste samples and the waste composition for pyrolysis is changing [22].…”

This paper deals with the pyrolysis conversion of synthetic waste materials into noble fuels, i.e., heating oils, gasoline, diesel, and carbon. The following article presents the principle and use of pyrolysis conversion of waste tires and plastics. The core of the paper is the determination of energy properties of noble fuels obtained from pyrolysis conversion and the possibility of their real use in industry. The aim of this paper is a technical-economic evaluation of the use of waste pyrolysis in practice in the Slovak Republic. Unlike various methods of waste management, there are also more efficient methods, which primarily have a positive effect on the ecology of our Earth and at the same time can be effectively used for the production of alternative fuels. One of these methods is the pyrolysis conversion of synthetic waste materials into noble fuels. It is an ecological, waste-free, economical, and economical disposal of waste with a full recovery of its energy and material components with reduced emissions, and therefore this direction of using synthetic waste for the conversion of alternative fuels contributes to sustainable development. A significant advantage of this waste management is considered to be the fact that only waste tires or chlorine-free plastics are used as input materials without other necessary raw materials obtained by other economic activity. Tires and plastics are generated daily as waste in every household.

“…Based on the process parameters the gas/liquid ratio can be changed. The influencing factors of plastic waste pyrolysis were investigated by several researchers such as temperature [5,6], pressure [7,8], time [9], type of reactor [2,10], catalyst [11,12] and plastic waste material used [2]. The main goal of this research is to investigate the thermal pyrolysis of HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS plastic wastes and determine the yields of transportation fuels by performing atmospheric distillation of the pyrolysis oil.…”

Thermal pyrolysis of HDPE, LDPE, PP and PS plastic wastes were performed in a batch reactor and the yields of pyrolysis oils and liquid transportation fuels prepared by atmospheric distillation were determined. The gasoline fractions were tested in a traditional spark-ignition engine without any modifications or fuel blending. Fuel consumption and exhaust gas emission (NOx, CO) were measured and compared to a commercial fuel (RON = 95). PS generated 70.5% gasoline range hydrocarbons from the solid waste, followed by PP with 42.1%, LDPE with 40.8% and HDPE with 37.3%. The fuel consumption was reduced by 9.1-9.4% in the case of PS compared to reference measurement. Reduction in fuel consumption was noticeable at HDPE, LDPE and PP as well. PS gasoline decreased by 91-96%, while HDPE, LDPE and PP more likely increased the CO emission of the engine compared to commercial gasoline. The results show that pyrolysis of plastic wastes is a promising method to generate value added liquid transportation fuels and reduce the footprint of waste accumulation in landfills.

1 Fakultet za inženjerski menadžment, luka@latinovic.rs Apstrakt: Ključni problemi recikliranja plastičnog otpada u Srbiji su neadekvatna zakonska regulativa i niska otkupna cena otpadne plastike koja ne predstavlja podsticaj za njeno sakupljanje u većoj meri. Ovaj rad predlaže metod za recikliranje plastike koji se bazira na pirolitičkoj konverziji plastičnog otpada u supstitute goriva kao primarni način reciklaže. Metod se ogleda u više različitih smernica za njegovu primenu. One su detaljno objašnjene i prikazane u ovom radu. Ukoliko bi zakonodavac prepoznao ovaj metod recikliranja kao društveno odgovorno poslovanje i uneo određene izmene u zakonskoj regulativi, i ukoliko bi navedene smernice bile ispoštovane, implementacijom ovog metoda mogao bi se stvoriti prostor za veću otkupnu cenu plastičnog otpada. Ekonomski posmatrano, viša cena otkupa povećala bi ponudu, odnosno podstakla sakupljanje plastičnog otpada u većoj meri što bi imalo pozitivan ekološki efekat uz ekonomsku opravdanost. Ključne reči:Recikliranje plastike, piroliza, zamena za dizel, ekološki. Abstract:The key problems of plastic recycling in Serbia are inadequate legislation and low purchase price of plastic waste, which is a poor incentive for plastic waste collecting. This paper suggests the method for plastic waste handling in Serbia by means of pyrolytic conversion into fuel substitutes as primary recycling method. It is reflected in several guidelines for its application, which are explained in detail, proved and given in this paper. If the state recognized this method as a socially responsible business by introducing certain legal regulation changes and if the above guidelines were followed, the implementation model could make a room for a higher purchase price of plastic waste. In economic terms, higher price would increase supply by encouraging the collection of plastic waste to greater extent, which would have a stronger environmental impact with economic justification.
