Usefulness of Lumped Kinetic Modeling.

ABSTRACT: Chemical recycling of plastic wastes through pyrolysis, gasification, or partial oxidation is a promising alternative to landfill disposal and incineration which must be applied in a future circular economy. These technologies enable the chemical industry, which currently heavily relies on crude oil, to obtain necessary chemical feedstock from postconsumer plastic waste. Kinetic models of pyrolysis and gasification reactions are required to dimension and design these processes on an industrial scale. The creation of detailed kinetic networks is often not feasible due to their complexity in this application, which is when the lumped kinetic modeling approach is used. This work develops and compares five lumped kinetic models for the co-pyrolysis of LDPE with a heavy petroleum fraction in a
