A plastic pyrolysis process produces light olefin product and heavier products. The light olefin products are separated in a recovery process while the heavier product can be sent to a cracking unit to be further cracked to desired products. The cracked effluent stream may be subjected to the recovery process along with the light olefin product.

Conversion of plastics to monomers with integrated recovery with a cracking unit

A process for converting pyrolysis effluent stream into hydrocarbon products. Waste plastics are pyrolyzed at high temperature in a pyrolysis reactor to obtain a plastic pyrolysis effluent stream. The plastic pyrolysis effluent stream is further sent to a steam cracking unit for the separation of plastic pyrolysis effluent stream into a C5+ hydrocarbon stream and a C4 hydrocarbon stream. The pyrolysis reactor is operated at a to obtain hydrocarbon products of high value.
