PROCESS FOR CONVERTING MIXED WASTE PLASTIC (MWP) INTO VALUABLE PETROCHEMICALS

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for converting mixed waste plastic (MWP) into valuable petrochemicals, comprising feeding mixed waste plastic (MWP) to a pyrolysis reactor, converting said MWP into a gaseous stream and a liquid stream, and further processing said gaseous stream into valuable petrochemicals, said process further comprising the steps of: i) feeding said liquid stream, together with a hydrocracker feed, to a hydrocracking unit; ii) converting said liquid stream, together with said hydrocracker feed, through hydrocracking into at least one gaseous stream and a liquid stream: iii) further processing said at least one gaseous stream into valuable petrochemicals.
