METHOD FOR TREATING PLASTICS, IN PARTICULAR WASTE PLASTICS, AND USE OF HYDROCARBONS COMING FROM THE CATALYTIC PYROLYSIS OF SAID WASTE PLASTICS

摘要

A method includes the stage of carrying out catalytic pyrolysis of said plastics and is characterised in that said pyrolysis is carried out by means of the spouted-bed contact system and under conditions in the reactor (1) suitable for permitting total conversion of said plastics to gas, and in that it also includes the stage of generating electrical energy by means of cogeneration equipment fed from hydrocarbons. It is self- sufficient in energy terms and has very high energy efficiency.
