{"product_id":"feedstock-recycling-and-pyrolysis-of-waste-plastics-isbn-9780470021521","title":"Feedstock Recycling and Pyrolysis of Waste Plastics","description":"Pyrolysis is a recycling technique converting plastic waste into fuels, monomers, or other valuable materials by thermal and catalytic cracking processes. It allows the treatment of mixed, unwashed plastic wastes. For many years research has been carried out on thermally converting waste plastics into useful hydrocarbons liquids such as crude oil and diesel fuel. Recently the technology has matured to the point where commercial plants are now available. Pyrolysis recycling of mixed waste plastics into generator and transportation fuels is seen as the answer for recovering value from unwashed, mixed plastics and achieving their desired diversion from landfill.  \u003cp\u003eThis book provides an overview of the science and technology of pyrolysis of waste plastics. It describes the types of plastics that are suitable for pyrolysis recycling, the mechanism of pyrolytic degradation of various plastics, characterization of the pyrolysis products and details of commercially mature pyrolysis technologies. This book also covers co-pyrolysis technology, including: waste plastic\/waste oil, waste plastics\/coal, and waste plastics\/rubber.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cb\u003eContributors.\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries Preface.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Editors.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eI INTRODUCTION.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction to Feedstock Recycling of Plastics\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eA.
