Abstract
Emulsification of pyrolysis oil produced from plastic waste has been experimented. The employed cascade heating steps and heating rates pyrolysis process provides 80% product yield using waste plastic or recycles HDPE pellets as a raw material. Water-in-oil emulsion is produced ultrasonically and mechanically with Span80 as a surfactant. The emulsion stability was assessed by water droplet size and visual observation of any phase separation. An ultrasonic mixer is found to be more effective than mechanical homogenizer in terms of homogenous stability to emulsify plastic oil with water. For emulsion with 10% water by volume, the emulsion is observed to be stable for up to 24 hours after mixing.
