Abstract: A municipal solid waste material is converted to a refuse derived fuel then to syngas which is processed to produce a liquid feedstream via Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis. The Fischer-Tropsch liquid feedstream is combined with a triglyceride feedstream then hydroprocessed to produce a distillate fuel end product.

Abstract: The conversion of waste plastics material to hydrocarbon fuel products, particularly transportation fuels. The waste plastics material can be obtained from any suitable source, such as a municipal solid waste facility and from agricultural and horticultural activity. The plastics material feed, which can contain from about 10 to about 50 wt. % dirt, is reduced to an effective size, then dried, if needed, to a moisture level of 2 wt. % and less, then screened to removed dirt, then densified into nuggets of at least about 10 lb/ft3, then pyrolyzed.
