A chemical looping process for carbon fibre production from plastics

该项目旨在开发矿物循环塑料重整（MLPR），这是一种化学循环重整工艺，用于从塑料废物中生产碳纳米纤维。这种高效的工艺使用天然矿物（石灰石、白云石和钛铁矿）将塑料废物转化为碳纳米纤维。该项目将研究MLPR工艺的内部工作和塑料在天然矿物混合物存在下的重整反应。该项目预计将使澳大利亚成为废物利用的领导者，促进吸收大量废物流以生产高价值产品，并解决澳大利亚的可持续性，能源和环境问题。

This project aims to develop Mineral Looping Plastic Reforming (MLPR), a chemical looping reforming process for tonnage production of carbon nanofibers from plastic waste. This efficient process uses naturally occurring minerals (limestone, dolomite and ilmenite) to convert plastic waste to carbon nanofibers. The project will research the inner working of the MLPR process and the reforming reactions of plastics in the presence of naturally occurring mineral mixtures. This project is expected to make Australia a leader in waste use, facilitate the uptake of abundant waste streams to produce high value products, and resolve sustainability, energy and environmental issues in Australia.
