  • Publication number: 20200308492
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for converting plastic into waxes by cracking. The process comprises the steps of introducing the plastic within a reactor; allowing at least a portion of the plastic to be converted to waxes, the waxes being part of a pyrolysis gas formed within the reactor; and removing a product stream containing said waxes from the reactor. The invention also relates to a mixture of hydrocarbons obtainable by that process.

  • Publication number: 20180371325
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for continuously converting mixed waste plastic into waxes and liquid fuels by cracking. The process comprises the steps of feeding a mixed waste plastic stream to a cracking reactor where the mixed waste plastic is catalytically cracked in the presence of a catalyst and circulating the catalyst between the cracking reactor and a regenerator where the catalyst received from the cracking reactor is regenerated and heated by burning coke and/or other combustible material deposited on or mixed with the catalyst.
