1.2 Aim of the study
The aim is to obtain useful materials by recycling waste polyethylene materials via pyrolysis.
1.3 Objectives of the study
The objectives of this work are:-
i. To collect the polyethylene waste materials (discarded water sachets and plastic bottles e.tc.).
ii. To carry out thermal pyrolysis of the materials at a temperature of 350oC – 400oC
iii. To analyze each residue for toxic metals
iv. To use ‘fresh’ and ‘spent’ FCC catalyst within the range of 350oC – 400oC
v. To monitor the quantity of fuel gases and hydrocarbon liquids evolved.
1.4 Significance of the study
The significance studies of the recycling polyethylene waste materials via pyrolysis are :-
It helps in prevent waste pollutants from an environment.
The
recycling of polyethylene waste help in an industrial production of
plastic and other polymer products, such as sachet water, plastic
bottles, rubber paint etc as sources of raw materials to produce other
useful products from those polyethylene waste materials.
It serve as an economics important to the society or nations.
Recycling is a dynamic process that restores the life of a material after used.
The
recycling of polyethylene waste Materials to useful products appear
interwoven with our consuming society where it would be hard to imagine a
modern society today without plastics which have found amyriad of uses
in fields as diverse as household appliances, packaging, construction,
medicine, electronics, and automotive and aerospace components.
Recycling Waste Polyethylene Materials
It helps to convert some polymer into paraffins and olefins
1.5 Scope of the study
The
research is restricted to the polyethylene waste products, arising
specifically from High Density polyethylene (HDPE) polyethylene and
LDPE.No attempt is made to suggest new production processes. The study
does not include investigation of alternative materials. Recycling Waste
