AB  - Factorial Design Methodology (FDM) was developed to enhance diesel fuel fraction 
      (C9-C23) from waste high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and Heavy Gas Oil (HGO) 
      through co-pyrolysis. FDM was used for optimization of the following reaction 
      parameters: temperature, catalyst and HDPE amounts. The HGO amount was constant 
      (2.00 g) in all experiments. The model optimum conditions were determined to be 
      temperature of 550  degrees C, HDPE = 0.20 g and no FCC catalyst. Under such conditions, 
      94% of pyrolytic oil was recovered, of which diesel fuel fraction was 93% (87% 
      diesel fuel fraction yield), no residue was produced and 6% of noncondensable 
      gaseous/volatile fraction was obtained. Seeking to reduce the cost due to high 
      process temperatures, the impact of using higher catalyst content (25%) with a 
      lower temperature (500  degrees C) was investigated. Under these conditions, 88% of 
      pyrolytic oil was recovered (diesel fuel fraction yield was also 87%) as well as 
      12% of the noncondensable gaseous/volatile fraction. No waste was produced in 
      these conditions, being an environmentally friendly approach for recycling the 
      waste plastic. This paper demonstrated the usefulness of using FDM to predict and 
      to optimize diesel fuel fraction yield with a great reduction in the number of 
      experiments.
