Additionally the energetic utilization of products have also been followed both in refining and petrochemical industry. Pyrolysis products were separated into fractions of gases, naphtha, middle distillates and heavy oil. Raw materials have been collected both from industrial and household sources: polyethylene from agriculture, polyethylene from packaging and polystyrene from packaging and electronic equipments. Yields and properties of volatile products have changed by the raw materials. Products have been analyzed by gas chromatography. Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, size exclusion chromatography and other standardized methods. Naphtha had high octane numbers (80 〈 RON), while high cetane numbers (〉 75) in case of middle distillates. Moreover fractions contained approximately half of unsaturated hydrocarbons, mainly α-olefins, but the percentage was depending on the raw materials. These properties are advantageous for fuel-like applications.展开更多
