Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to blended fuel compositions that include plastic pyrolysis oil including the total liquid product or a traction thereof as a blending fuel and methods of making thereof.
- plastic waste For high quality recycling that leads to plastic products that can again be mechanically recycled, plastic waste must be separated by polymer type and thoroughly cleaned. Typically, plastic waste is not properly segregated and is, consequently, downgraded into inferior products that then cannot be mechanically recycled further and often will later be incinerated (Waste-to- Energy) or discarded into a landfill or the environment.
- pyrolysis An alternative to discarding plastic waste into landfills or mechanically recycling plastic waste is pyrolysis.
- Pyrolysis of plastic waste typically involves heating the plastic waste and entrained organic material in a low oxygen environment.
- a plastic pyrolysis oil having a broad boiling range can be obtained.
- Said plastic pyrolysis oil typically with additional purification processing, can be used as at least a portion of a blendstock for upgrading to plastic polymer. This pyrolysis processing provides a plastic blendstock for a more circular plastic economy.
- the present disclosure relates to blended fuel compositions that include plastic pyrolysis oil including the total liquid product or a fraction thereof as a blending fuel.
- a first nonlimiting example method of making a blended fuel composition of the present disclosure comprises: blending a plastic pyrolysis oil with a blendstock fuel to produce a blended fuel composition, wherein the blended fuel composition comprises about 1 vol% to about 20 vol% of the plastic pyrolysis oil and about 80 vol% to about 99 vol% of the blendstock fuel, and wherein a combination of the plastic pyrolysis oil and the blendstock fuel is selected from the group consisting of: a naphtha fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and gasoline; a distillate fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and diesel; the distillate fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and a marine fuel; a heavy pyrolysis fuel fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and the marine fuel; and the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and the marine fuel.
- a nonlimiting example of a blended fuel composition of the present disclosure comprises: about 1 vol% to about 20 vol% of a plastic pyrolysis oil and about 80 vol% to about 99 vol% of the blendstock fuel, and wherein a combination of the plastic pyrolysis oil and the blendstock fuel is selected from the group consisting of: a naphtha fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and gasoline; a distillate fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and diesel; the distillate fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and a marine fuel; a heavy pyrolysis fuel fraction of the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and the marine fuel; and the plastic pyrolysis total liquid product and the marine fuel.
- the present disclosure relates to blended fuel compositions that include plastic pyrolysis oil including the total liquid product or a fraction thereof as a blending fuel.
- the plastic pyrolysis oil described herein has a low oxygen content, a low sulfur content, and a high hydrocarbon content.
- blendstock fuels e.g., marine fuel, gasoline, diesel, and the like
- the plastic pyrolysis oil described herein can be used as-produced (the total liquid product) or as a distilled fraction thereof depending on the end-product fuel.
- blending hydrocarbons e.g., light cycle oil and straight run automotive diesel
- the present disclosure proposes to use plastic pyrolysis oil (total liquid product or fractions thereof) as the blending hydrocarbon.
- Blending hydrocarbons produced from crude oil and other fossil fuels can have high sulfur concentrations (depending on the source of the crude oil) but a lower cetane index, higher viscosity, and higher density as compared to the plastic pyrolysis oils described herein.
- the plastic pyrolysis oils described herein provide low-sulfur advantages (e.g., more can be added, if needed, without exceeding the final composition sulfur specifications) as well as high cetane index, lower viscosity, and lower density advantages (e.g., less plastic pyrolysis oil can be used to achieve the desired fuel properties).
- plastic pyrolysis oil All additional benefit of the use of plastic pyrolysis oil is that the rigorous requirements for mechanical recycling (e.g., separation of each plastic type and stringent pre-cleaning) are not required. Rather, several types of plastic can be pyrolyzed simultaneously with little to no precleaning because the organic matter (e.g., food) carried along with the plastic waste is also pyrolyzed.
- a reference to a “C x ” fraction, stream, portion, feed, or other quantity is defined as a fraction (or other quantity) where 50 wt% or more of the fraction corresponds to hydrocarbons having “x” number of carbons.
- a range is specified, such as “Cx-Cy,” 50 wt% or more of the fraction conesponds to hydrocarbons having a number of carbons from “x” to “y.”
- a specification of “C x +” (or “Cx-”) corresponds to a fraction where 50 wt% or more of the fraction corresponds to hydrocarbons having the specified number of carbons or more (or the specified number of carbons or less).
- plastic pyrolysis oil refers to pyrolysis oil where at least 50 wt% of the pyrolysis oil is derived from a plastic source. That is, the feedstock (also referred to as plastic feedstock) that is pyrolyzed comprises at least 50 wt% plastic.
- naphtha or “naphtha fraction’ refers to a hydrocarbon composition having an initial boiling point (ASTM D2887-19a using a using a 15-theoretical plate column and 5:1 flux ratio is a classical method to obtain the distillation curve) of about -6''C to about. 193°C.
- distillate or “distillate fraction” refers to a hydrocarbon composition having an initial boiling point ( ASTM D2887-19a using a using a 15-theoretical plate column and 5:1 flux ratio is a classical method to obtain the distillation curve) of about 193°C to about 371 °C.
- the term “heavy pyrolysis fuel” or “heavy pyrolysis fuel” refers to a hydrocarbon composition having an initial boiling point (ASTM D2887-19a using a using a 1.5- theoretical plate column and 5: 1 flux ratio is a classical method to obtain the distillation curve) of about 371 °C to about 56 PC.
