Recovery of Terephthalic Acid from Densified Post-consumer Plastic Mix by HTL Process

Recovery of Terephthalic Acid from Densified Post-consumer Plastic Mix by HTL Process

In this study, we investigate the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of PET separated from a densified postconsumer plastic mix, with the aim of recovering its monomer. This second raw material is made up of 90% polyolefin, while the remaining 10% is made up of PET, traces of metals, paper, and glass....
