Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for treating a plastic feedstock, comprising:
a) a dissolution step involving placing the feedstock in contact with a dissolution solvent, at a dissolution temperature of between 100° C. and 300° C. and a dissolution pressure of between 1 and 20.0 MPa abs, the dissolution solvent having a boiling point of between −50° C. and 250° C., to obtain a crude polymer solution;
b) a step of adsorption by placing the crude polymer solution in contact with an adsorbent, at a temperature of between 100 and 300° C. and a pressure of between 1.0 and 20.0 MPa abs, to obtain a refined polymer solution; and then
c) a step of recovering the polymers, to obtain at least one solvent fraction and one purified polymer fraction.
