Kinetic and Thermodynamic Study on the Pyrolysis of Low Density Polyethylene in the Production of Polyethylene Wax

Chinenye Faith Okey-Onyesolu, Chukwunonso Chukwuzuloke Okoye, Marcel Ikenna Ejimofor & Ikenna Chukwudi Nwokedi · Asian Journal of Advanced Research and Reports · 2023

Polyethylene wax was obtained from pyrolysis experiments on Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) wastes using a muffle furnace in inert condition. 60 – 80% of the initial mass of wax were obtained as heating was added at a rate of 10oC/min. Operating conditions for the reaction were 4...
