Abstract (en)

[origin: CA3198552A1] Disclosed is a method for treating a plastic feedstock, the method including: (a) a dissolution step comprising bringing the plastic feedstock into contact with a dissolution solvent, at a dissolution temperature between 100°C and 300°C and a dissolution pressure between 1 and 20.0 MPa abs. so as to dissolve at least a portion of the polymers of the plastic feedstock and obtain a crude polymer solution; (b) an extraction step of bringing the crude polymer solution into contact with an extraction solvent, at a temperature between 100°C and 300°C, a pressure between 1 and 20.0 MPa abs. and a mass ratio of the mass flow rate of the extraction solvent and the mass flow rate of the crude polymer solution between 0.05 and 20.0, to obtain an extracted polymer solution and a spent solvent; then (c) a step of recovering the polymers, so as to obtain a solvent fraction and a purified polymer fraction.
