Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017088015A1] Disclosed herein is a kiln (100) for use in the production of hydrocarbon fuels from plastics. The kiln (100) comprises a scrubber (200) in fluid communication with a reaction chamber (130), the scrubber (200) being configured to condense hydrocarbons in the reaction chamber gas product stream (501) above a predetermined upper hydrocarbon range for returning to the reaction chamber (130) for further heating in the absence of oxygen. Also disclosed herein is a method of converting waste plastics to a commercially-useful form by way of diesel or the like. The method comprises treating a crude fuel produced from plastics in a pyrolytic process with a first extraction step comprising counterflow liquid-liquid extraction, and a second extraction step comprising counterflow extraction of solvents from the first extraction step.
