The research explores the impact of varying operating parameters, specifically examining the effects of temperature, space time, and steam/plastic (S/P) ratio on conversion, hydrogen production, and product yields. The temperature was varied within the range of 600–750 °C, demonstrating notable influence on conversion efficiency and hydrogen production. Additionally, the effect of space-time (2.8–20.8 g catalyst min gHDPE−1) was thoroughly evaluated, revealing substantial improvements in both conversion and hydrogen yields. Moreover, the S/P ratio of 1 to 3 was investigated, showcasing significant enhancements in hydrogen and CO2 yields with increasing steam partial pressure. The study provides valuable insights into optimizing the process parameters for HDPE pyrolysis and in-line reforming, which are crucial for achieving efficient conversion and enhancing hydrogen production.
