Abstract

This study to calculate and composition of fuels from polyethylene waste production per litre. Production method with pyrolysis at 450-621°C without catalyst, and quantitative method with GC-MS. The results product of 5 kg pyrolysis HDPE are 3.25 litres of naphtha; 0.85 litre of gasoline; 0.325 litre of diesel fuel; and 18.06 grams of residues. Then The product of 5 kg pyrolysis LDPE are 0.5 litres of naphtha; 2.9 litre of gasoline; 0.1 litre of diesel fuel; and 19 grams of residues. The conclusions in this study were product of 5 kg pyrolysis HDPE are 3.25 litres of naphtha; 0.85 litre of gasoline; 0.325 litre of diesel fuel; and 18.06 grams of residues. Then The product of 5 kg pyrolysis LDPE are 2.9 litre of gasoline, 0.1 litre of diesel fuel, and 19 grams of residues. Composition of fuels from polyethylene (HDPE and LDPE) pyrolysis are naphtha, gasoline, and residues.

Highlights

  • The topic of production fuels from plastic waste has been widely analyzed by many researchers

  • Indonesia is one of the great producer number 2 plastic waste in the world 3,22 million metrics tonne per year and 0,48-1,29 million metrics tonne per year of plastic waste in ocean [1]

  • The relationship between production of fuels from HDPE and LDPE plastic waste via pyrolysis methods has been an active research area will explain at Theory and Methodology

Summary

Introduction

The topic of production fuels from plastic waste has been widely analyzed by many researchers. Biofuel industry was employed 1,724 million labours in the world, especially in Indonesia have been 154.300 labours worked at biofuel industry from palm oil [2]. This is indicated to develop biofuel industry from plastic waste was prospective too. The relationship between production of fuels from HDPE and LDPE plastic waste via pyrolysis methods has been an active research area will explain at Theory and Methodology. The results of this study can be used as the foundation of policy making especially in the energy and environment field, and development of industrial fuels (biofuel and biodiesel) from plastics waste in Indonesia
