Pyrolytic Plastic Oil Distillation Study of Five Mixed Plastic Waste Pyrolysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study aims to obtain an alternative fuel from plastic pyrolytic oil (PPO) that has similar properties to gasoline and diesel fuel. The process carried out is distillation, which is heating the PPO at a certain temperature so that light and heavy molecules will evaporate and turn into distillate plastic oil (DPO). The effect of temperature on the quality of the DPO was observed based on the color of the obtained DPO. Temperatures ranging from 120 to 350 °C were examined in this study. The cleaner DPO was produced at a temperature of about 120 °C, which indicated a light molecule of hydrocarbon similar to gasoline, while a little dark color was produced when the temperature was increased to 350 °C, which indicated heavy molecules of hydrocarbon similar to diesel. This research shows that distillation can produce alternative fuels with different grades depending on the applied operating temperature.
