Pyrolysis Oil Expiremental Feedstock Recipes

Basics

• This page goes over various "recipes" for Pyrolysis Oil
• The main goal is to start with "standard" feedstocks such as Plastics that should break down into predictable compounds
  • This will make analyzing yields easier, as well as leave less "things to go wrong"

Polyethylene

• Given most plastic wrappers/wrap and packages are LDPE this should make them a predictable feedstock
• ESPECIALLY if using the type used for Shipping Pallets
