Plastic Pyrolytic oil and its Uses

Concept of Pyrolytic Oil

• Pyrolytic plant applies pyrolysis technology which can convert plastics into fuel oil and carbon black.

• They have a wide range of applications and having potential to be viable alternative to liquid fossil fuels like diesel.

• The fuel oil can be widely used in industries such as steel and iron and boiler factories, ceramics, power or chemical industries etc. or used for
generators to get electricity. Carbon black can be used for making construction bricks with clay, or used as fuel.

• The oil output rate varies based on type of plastic used in the manufacturing process . Plastic categories like PE, PP and PS can reach about
50%-70%, while that of the ABS is 40%.The oil yield rate is dependent on water percentage of the plastic and the models of pyrolysis plants .

• Based on the type of manufacturing process , their can be three types of pyrolytic plants
• Batch pyrolytic plant(
• Continuous pyrolytic

• Pyrolysis oil : 40 to 80% - variable depending on the type and percentage of plastic present in plastic waste
• Pyrolysis gas : 20 to 35% - variable depending on the type and percentage of plastic present in plastic waste
• Pyrolysis residue : 3% to 30% - variable depending on ash content and soil content in the plastic waste
• Wastewater : if there is moisture content in plastic waste, waste water will be generated.

• Based on the type of manufacturing process , their can be two types of pyrolytic plants-
• Batch pyrolytic plant(pyrolytic ( plastic pyrolysis plant can process 5-10 tons of waste plastics such as PE, PP, PS, ABS, pure white plastic,
pure plastic cable, pure purchase bag etc. per day, which can work on batches)
• Continuous pyrolytic ( plastic pyrolysis plant can process 20-14 tons of waste plastics such as PE, PP, PS, ABS, pure white plastic, pure plastic
cable, pure purchase bag etc. per day, which can work continuously for 24 hours)
Process of Pyrolytic Oil
Process of Pyrolytic Oil

•Feeding crushed plastic into reactor by the sealed screw conveyor, then fire the fuel in the burning room, the fuel could be diesel natural gas, LPG.
•The hot air will flow into the reactor for heating.
•When the inner temperature of the reactor reaches to related degree, the oil gas will be generated, then goes into the manifold firstly. In the
manifold, the heavy particles will be liquefied into heavy oil and drop in the heavy oil tank.
•The light oil gas rise up. The damping tank will reduce the oil gas moving speed, and then goes into condensers uniformly.
•In the horizontal tubular condensers, the oil gas will be liquefied into fuel oil. A large scale of oil gas will be liquefied into fuel oil and enter oil
tank.
•In the hydroseal, the combustibe gas will be desulfurated and cleansed. Then recycled to the burning room to provide heat, saving a lot of fuel.
•Hot smoke gets out from the reactor through the inner pipe of heat exchange system. Air(Oxygen) enter through the out pipe of the heat exchange
system. In this process, the air will be heated by the hot smoke, then transferred to the burning room to provide the oxygen, this is the function of
the heat exchange system.
•In the flue condenser, the smoke will be cooled down, then enter the dedusting system.
•In the spraying tower, the smoke will go through the water washing, water spray, ceramic ring adsorption and activated carbon adsorption. After
four filters, the clean smoke can meet the EU environmental protection and emission standards.
•The carbon black will be discharged by the auto screw discharger.
