Hydrocarbon Fractions from Thermolysis of Waste Plastics as Components of Engine Fuels

Plastics are one of the basic construction materials with a wide range of various applications. One of their disadvantages is the problem of managing the waste they generate. Chemical recycling offers the possibility of liquefying polymeric waste and using it as fuel components. Existing technologie...
