The technology proposed here will contribute to all aspects of the energy trilemma as well as offering acommunity-scale solution for waste management. This project will investigate, process model and validate afurther step being added onto an existing Advanced Thermal Treatment (ATT) plant, post-pyrolysis, which willenable valuable products to be recovered. These products will include liquid fuels, and the work describedhere will build on a process model developed during a round 3 Energy Catalyst project, validated through pilot-scale pyrolysis trials of specified waste materials. The stored fuels opens up the opportunity of stored fuels forlocal use derived from low-value, but ever-present, materials. The objectives of this project are to: 1)determine the types and abundance of plastics available in feedstocks, 2) model and validate the chemicalcomposition of the feedstocks and the conversion to condensed liquid outputs, and 3) develop a business casefor commercialisation of the liquid fuels and chemical products in both the UK and in Nigeria. This provingprocess will help unlock further investment and ensure that the UK is at the forefront of flexible ATT processes.

这里提出的技术将有助于能源三元素的各个方面，并为废物管理提供实验室规模的解决方案。该项目将调查，过程模型和验证Afurther步骤将添加到现有的高级热处理（ATT）工厂，即热解之后，该植物将要回收。这些产品将包括液体燃料，其中所描述的工作将建立在第三轮能源催化剂项目中开发的过程模型，该工艺模型通过指定废料的试验尺度的热解试验验证。储存的燃料为源自低价值但永远存在的材料的储存燃料的机会打开了机会。该项目的目标是：1）确定原料中可用的塑料的类型和丰度，2）模型并验证原料的化学共同点以及转化为凝结液体输出，3）开发了英国和尼日利亚的液体燃料和化学产品的商业案例商业化。这一证明程序将有助于释放进一步的投资，并确保英国处于灵活的ATT流程的最前沿。
