This study investigated the pyrolysis of polystyrene (PS) packaging waste for transportation fuel application of the oil product, with a specific focus on the effect of contamination and the scale-up of the process. The oil yield and calorific value…
Liquid hydrocarbons obtained from the pyrolysis of polypropylene and polystyrene were used as diluents to reduce the viscosity of a Mexican heavy crude oil of 10.6°API. Blends of oil and diluents were formulated with fractions of 5, 10 and 15 vol% of…
