Selection Guide of Plastic Raw Materials to Pyrolysis
In fact, not all plastics are suitable for pyrolysis. So here is the information about acceptable and unacceptable plastic raw materials for you. Please read.
Kindly reminder: Sample testing is available. If you’re unsure whether your plastic is fit for pyrolysis, you can send us intact, leak-proof samples. Each sample should have a diameter under 2cm and weigh at least 5kg per type.
Acceptable Waste Plastic Types
- PE (Polyethylene);
- PP (Polypropylene);
- PS (Polystyrene);
- ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene);
- Others.
Unacceptable Waste Plastic Types
- PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate);
- PVC(Polyvinyl Chloride).
NOTE: The two are unacceptable because their pyrolysis produces toxic gases and low oil yield.
Plastic Pyrolysis Oil Yield – from Different Types of Plastic
Now please take a look at the plastic pyrolysis oil yield of different types of plastics. For better oil yield, it is advisable to process a single type of plastic. PE/PP/PS are good options. Utilizing pyrolysis to process mixed plastics is also possible, but it will require more process control and separation steps.
Application Scenarios of Plastic Pyrolysis Oil
Fuel Alternatives
Plastic pyrolysis oil has a high calorific value, providing a stable fuel supply and the required heat energy in industrial production. This includes industrial sites such as glass factories, steel factories, power plants, ceramic factories, cement factories, etc.
Further Processing
- Investors can purchase distillation equipment to process pyrolysis oil to obtain naphtha;
- Refineries can refine pyrolysis oil and convert it into commercial gasoline and diesel.
Plastic Reproduction
Plastic pyrolysis oil can be used in plastic remanufacturing processes. This production model realizes a closed loop of resources in the plastics industry. And this reduces the need for new plastic production. This reduces the consumption of natural resources.

Plastic Pyrolysis Plant Projects Around the World
How Does Plastic Pyrolysis Equipment Work?
01 Pretreatment
Generally, with a dryer and crusher, moisture is removed, and large plastic items are crushed into small pieces. This helps to accelerate pyrolysis reaction and effectively save energy.
02 Feeding
03 Pyrolysis
Wait for pyrolysis temperatures to rise between 280 and 450°C.
Heating process initiates a series of decomposition and volatilization reactions, ultimately yielding large amount of oil-gas mixture.
04 Oil Gas Treatment
The oil gas coming out from the reactor then goes to condensing system.
- Most of the light particles of oil gas liquefies into pyrolysis oil.
- Heavy particles of the oil gas (mainly oil dregs) will be repushed into the reactor for re-pyrolysis.
- Un-condensed gas is recycled back to combuster for usd as fuel to sustain the pyrolysis process.
05 Solid Residue Discharge
06 Combustible Gas & Exhaust Gas Treatment
