This reactor system has been found to be useful for both the thermal and catalytic cracking of waste plastics. However, tubular reactors have the same rigid requirements for MSW pre-treatment as the fluidised-bed reactors due to the small channel for passage of MSW. In addition, erosion caused by sand and other hard solids contained in the MSW can be a risk for this reactor, and heat transfer rates are not well defined for different waste types<ref name="ref1" />. | This reactor system has been found to be useful for both the thermal and catalytic cracking of waste plastics.
