Abstract: A method is disclosed of purifying a recycled or renewable organic material, wherein the recycled or renewable organic material contains one or more impurities selected from a group consisting of silicon compounds, phosphorous, Cl and sterols. Exemplary embodiments include (a) providing the recycled or renewable organic material; (c) heat treating the recycled or renewable organic material at 100 to 450° C.; and (f) hydrotreating the heat treated recycled or renewable organic material in a presence of a hydrotreating catalyst; to obtain purified hydrotreated recycled or renewable organic material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system and a method for optical measurement of a target, wherein the target is illuminated, either actively illuminated, reflecting ambient light, or self illuminating, and a measurement light beam received from the target or through it is detected. The prior art optical measurement systems generally include mechanical filter wheels and photomultiplier tubes, which cause the equipment to be expensive, large-sized and often not sufficiently accurate and stable. The objective of the invention is achieved with a solution, in which the illuminating light beam and/or measurement light beam is led through a Fabry-Perot interferometeror a set of two or more Fabry-Perot Interferometers, and the Fabry-Perot interferometer or a set of two or more Fabry-Perot Interferometersis controlled into different modes during the measurement of a single target. The invention can be applied inoptical measurements where, for example, reflectance, absorption of fluorescence of the target is measured.
