Pyrolysis of polymer waste can potentially be a source of renewable energy, as it is a possible way to produce liquid fuel. In order to industrialize the process, the kinetic behavior of the pyrolysis has to be well understood. In this study, pyrolysis of virgin low density polyethylene (LDPE) was s...
