Polystyrene Plastic Waste into Liquid Fuel Using Silica-Alumina Catalyst, Extracted from Rice HuskBy Tihitna Abebe
Abstract: Catalytic Pyrolysis of Polystyrene (PS) into fuel like products using silica alumina catalyst that was extracted from rice husk was investigated over temperature range of 430–470°C. The output of catalytic pyrolysis was liquid oil, solid residues (char) and gaseous fraction. The product yields as a function of temperature, time and catalyst amount were studied. High conversion of liquid (48.8%) was achieved at 430 and 450ºC in the presence of 12.5 …
