A continuous pyrolysis plant breaks down waste like rubber and plastic without oxygen, running 24 hours a day to turn waste into fuel oil, carbon black and syngas. Beston Blackgold P30 continuous model can process up to 6,000 tons of waste plastics, 10,000 tons of waste tires, or 12,000 tons of oil sludge annually. With high automation, it enables 30 days of non-stop operation. Its energy-efficient and eco-friendly features further enhance its appeal. These make it an increasingly popular choice among investors.
A sealed, multi-stage airlock screw feeder conveys the prepared material into the main reactor. Air is strictly excluded through nitrogen inerting to maintain an anaerobic environment.
Inside the main reactor, the material is heated indirectly (typically between 300°C and 400°C). Under high temperature without oxygen, organic polymers break into light hydrocarbon vapors (oil gas) and solid carbon residue.
The oil gas enters the spray system, where it separates into heavy and light oil at approximately 200°C. The two fractions then flow into their corresponding oil storage tanks respectively. Non-condensable syngas is routed to a hydroseal for safety washing.
The scrubbed syngas is directed back into the reactor’s combustion chamber as auxiliary fuel. This makes the plant self-sustaining during continuous operation, significantly lowering external heating costs.
Solid carbon black or residue is transported out of the reactor via a sealed, water-cooled screw conveyor. This cools the hot char to below 50°C before exposure to air, preventing self-combustion.
Exhaust gases pass through a multi-stage emission purification system—including water spray, desulfurization, and denitrification—to ensure compliance with EU environmental standards.

Utilizes continuous mechanical chain friction in the rotary reactor to effectively minimize coking.
Utilizes steam heating to achieve precise temperature control and liquefy wax oil. Combined with a self-cleaning mechanism, it effectively prevents condenser clogging.
Using an oil-gas spray system, fraction cutting of light and heavy components is completed directly at around 200°C.
Blackgold P30 integrates PLC automatic temperature control (±10°C precision), automated weighing feeding, and staged condensation.
Light oil is the lower-boiling-point fraction of pyrolysis oil, characterized by low viscosity and good flowability. Main applications include:
Non-standard diesel is the higher-boiling-point fraction of pyrolysis oil, with properties similar to commercial diesel but not fully meeting national standard requirements. Main applications include:
Gasoline blending components are recovered from surplus non-condensable combustible gas. Its aromatic hydrocarbon content reaches 65%. Main application:
rCB comes from continuous tyre pyrolysis plants, serving as a sustainable alternative to virgin carbon black.
Syngas is a gaseous product generated during pyrolysis, primarily composed of CO, H₂, CH₄, and CO₂. Key applications:
Aim to scale sustainable waste recycling operations, take on larger waste management projects, and maximize profit margins.
Looking for treatment of production scrap and off-spec materials to support a circular economy.
Require a stable, high-volume supply of pyrolysis oil for chemical recycling (Plastic-to-Plastic) and carbon reduction targets.
Seeking alternative energy sources to reduce rising fossil fuel costs.
With stricter regulations like the EU Industrial Emissions Directive (2.0), global oversight of industrial emissions is tightening. A continuous pyrolysis machine offers more stable reactions, cleaner operations, and easier emission compliance. This helps companies build greener factories and stay aligned with long-term policy trends.
Accelerating urbanization is driving a steady rise in solid waste, such as plastic waste, tires, etc. Continuous pyrolysis equipment, with 30-day non-stop operation and high automation, is ideal for large-scale processing. It helps cities advance waste reduction and resource recovery goals.
As the energy transition and circular economy progress, demand for high-quality pyrolysis oil is rising across refining, chemical, and energy sectors. A continuous tyre pyrolysis plant offers precise control over temperature and reaction time, ensuring consistent, large-scale production of high-quality oil.
With strong environmental benefits, continuous pyrolysis projects facilitate project approval and qualify for subsidies. The pyrolysis outputs enjoy strong market demand and high economic value. Thus, the project offers promising returns with manageable risks, increasingly becoming attractive to capital investment.
“Coking and frequent shutdowns have long troubled operators in this industry. Blackgold P30 was built to solve exactly this problem. Drawing on years of field engineering experience, we integrated anti-coking design, intelligent temperature control, and automation into one system — achieving 30 days of continuous operation and 300 stable operating days a year, giving customers the reliability they need for long-term, efficient operation.”
— Abel Feng, Technical Director of Beston Group.
“The Blackgold P30 represents the future direction of large-scale industrial chemical recycling, and we are confident it will play a pivotal role in this sector. By aligning stringent environmental standards with high operational efficiency, it empowers investors to strike a seamless balance between ecological value and economic returns—turning green investment into a sustainable business engine.”

| Raw Materials | Feeding Method | Feeding Size |
|---|---|---|
| Waste Plastic | Shafted Screw Conveyor | Less than 20 mm |
| Waste Tyre | Shafted Screw Conveyor | Less than 15 mm |
| Oil Sludge (40%–60% liquid content) | Shaftless Screw Conveyor | / |

The fully continuous pyrolysis plant runs in three shifts, with a minimum 3 workers per shift: 1 central control operator, 1 feeding & slagging operator, and 1 field inspector. One welder and one electrician work on day shifts for maintenance. Total headcount: 11.
The continuous pyrolysis reactor requires 3–4 hours of preheating. Feeding can start once the main reactor reaches 300–350°C. The hot air heating system is equipped with a 2.0–2.5 million kcal burner. During preheating, fuel consumption is 900–1200 L of fuel oil, or natural gas at 100–180 m³/h.
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Preheating time | 3–4 hours |
| Burner capacity | 2.0–2.5 million kcal |
| Fuel consumption | 900–1,200 L fuel oil or 100–180 m³/h natural gas |
In normal operation, syngas from plastic pyrolysis can fuel the hot blast stove on its own. Only the permanent flare pilot needs a small natural gas supplement, about 11–15 m³/h.
Alternatively, the large volume of pyrolysis gas can be routed directly to the gas-to-gasoline-blending-component unit for conversion. It’s then returned to the continuous plastic pyrolysis plant as fuel. Any surplus gas goes to the flare system for burn-off.
| Difference | Continuous (Blackgold P30) | Batch (BLJ-16) |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Capacity | 13–30 T/D | 12–16 T/D |
| Operation Mode | 24/7 Uninterrupted continuous feeding & discharging | Stop & Start (Requires cooling down after every batch) |
| Automation & Labor | Automated PLC control; minimal labor required | Manual/semi-automated; requires more labor per ton |
| Emission Control | EU-standard dedusting system | Standard dedusting system |
