Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods, systems, and apparatus for efficiently reducing carbon footprints in refining systems and petrochemical processing systems. In one aspect, a plastic powder feedstock is blended into a feedstock of a processing system to re-use plastic and reduce carbon footprints. In one implementation, a method of blending plastics into a processing system includes pulverizing a plastic supply to a plastic stock having a granule size that is within a range of 7 nanometers to nanometers. The method includes separating the plastic stock to remove a portion having a granule size that is outside of the range of 7 nanometers to 10 nanometers and generate a plastic feedstock. The method includes blending the plastic feedstock into a feedstock of the processing system to generate a blended feedstock, and processing the blended feedstock.
