Abstrakt: The use of waste in thermochemical processes, with or without catalysts, to provide environmental solutions, is an effective response to waste generation and offers a solution for providing energy to the transport and industrial sectors. Experiments were carried out using a plug flow reactor (PFR) reactor for the thermal and catalytic cracking of a frying oil and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) mixture, to produce bio‐oil and its derivatives with the same characteristics of crude oil and petroleum derivatives. Mixtures were fed into the PFR reactor for cracking at atmospheric pressure and 450 °C. All the operational conditions were controlled to better evaluate the quality of the products obtained from each reaction. Four experiments were carried out under different conditions. It was observed that increasing the catalyst in the feed flow improved the organic liquid product (OLP) yield. The experiments carried out showed the distribution of boiling points for the products and their derivatives in the distillation as well as the carbon number in the respective chains.
