Ověření rozkladu odpadních plastů typu PE a PP s využitím termálních metod

Abstract

This bachelor thesis is focused on degradation of selected types of plastic materials. The theoretical part describes the history of plastics, their use, possible dangers for contemporary civilization and processes research on the current state in the field of plastic waste management. The experimental part focuses on methods of total thermal depolymerization of waste plastics. The actual experiments were carried out using an existing autoclave device operating in hydrothermal mode and on a newly designed, constructed and commissioned microreactor in autogenous pressure mode. Individual outputs with measurements are evaluated with respect to further use.
