Which plastics can be used for pyrolysis?

The "white pollution" caused by plastics has always been a headache for us, and pyrolysis of waste plastics is currently the best way to deal with it. But because the composition of different types of plastics is different, not all plastics can be pyrolyzed.

Plastics that can be pyrolyzed include: pure PE plastic, pure PP plastic, pure PS plastic, pure ABS plastic, pure white plastic cloth, instant noodle packaging bags, plastic trademarks, paper mills waste, plastic household garbage, pure plastic cable skins, clean plastic bags. It is worth noting that PVC and PET are not suitable for pyrolysis.

Different kinds of plactics

The pyrolysis of plastics is a method of recycling plastics by thermally and chemically decomposing organic matter in a high-temperature, oxygen-free environment. In this process, long polymer molecules are easily broken down into short-chain hydrocarbons. This is done with the help of pressure and heat. The biggest advantage of this technology is that it does not produce any harmful pollutants to the environment and nature. The resulting product is fuel oil, which can be used to run factories to manufacture or produce different things, or be further refined into diesel for more applications.

The pyrolysis process of waste plastics to fuel oil:

1. Feed the waste plastics

The waste plastic material is shredded into small pieces and sent to the pyrolysis reactor.

2. High temperature pyrolysis

These materials are heated without any oxygen. Heating is very important because it determines the quality of the final product.

3. Condensed into oil

The heavy oil gas is collected in the heavy oil storage tank. Light oil gas comes out of the manifold and condenses into fuel oil after passing through the cooling system.

4. Discharge carbon black

After the pyrolysis process is over, the carbon black will be discharged automatically.
