Plastic Pyrolysis Equipment
Plastic pyrolysis equipment is designed to dispose of plastic waste into oil. Whether you plan to recycling plastic bottles, domestic plastic waste or e-waste plastic parts, it can fully meet your needs. In this process, plastic pyrolysis reactor will create a high temperature and low oxygen environment. Then plastic waste will take place pyrolysis reaction and decompose into oil quickly. And the conversion rate can reach 99%. In addition, we can also offer you professional waste oil and gas recycling and purifying. Which can help you reduce the plastic pyrolysis machine operation cost and prevent environmental pollution.
What is the method of converting plastic to oil?
Converting to oil is an ideal choice for plastic waste recycling. Then what method does the process employ? As the name suggests, the method of converting plastic to oil is pyrolysis. In anaerobic environment, increasing temperature make plastic waste high-molecular-weight compounds break down into smaller molecules – oil vapor. After water cooling, plastic pyrolysis oil vapor will convert to oil. This can be commonly used as fuel in cement plants, brick factories, boiler plants, power plants and other factories.
What is the pyrolysis process of plastic?
The pyrolysis process of plastic is an item you must know to buy a suitable plastic waste recycling machine and set up a plastic oil making plant successfully. In general, it consists of 4 parts: feeding, pyrolysis, cooling and oil sediment.
How to reduce gas waste in the plastic pyrolysis process?
Besides liquid oil, there is also some gas that cannot be condensed and dust, SO2, etc to dispose of. Discharging the gas waste directly will cause serious pollution and is against international environmental regulations. How to dispose of plastic pyrolysis gas waste? Our professional engineers have 2 tips for you.
Top 3 plastic pyrolysis reactor designs to turn plastic waste to oil fuel quickly
As mentioned above, plastic pyrolysis reactor plays an important role in turning plastic waste to oil fuel quickly. Why? There are 3 reasons:
How much does a plastic pyrolysis plant setup cost?
Generally, plastic pyrolysis plant cost is not fixed. Because, besides plastic pyrolysis equipment price, you also need to consider the plastic pyrolysis plant area rent, infrastructure cost, material expense, etc. In addition, they will fluctuate with the capacity, equipment configuration, system layout, etc of your plastic to oil project. In our company, a complete plastic pyrolysis system price is between $6,000-$200,000. If you want to get the precise quote of the plastic to oil system you need, welcome to send your requirements by contact form immediately.
What is the oil pyrolysis rate of different plastic waste?
The oil pyrolysis rate is related to not only the heating speed, temperature and cooling degree, but also the properties of the raw materials.
80-95% oil yield. Such as films, beverage bottles, calcium milk bottles, electrical insulation materials, handbags, water pipes, oil drums, daily necessities, etc.
60-90% oil yield. Such as films, plastic ropes, utensils, basins, barrels, furniture, woven bags, bottle caps, car bumpers, etc.
70-90% oil yield. Such as electrical appliances, stationery, cups, food containers, home appliance shells, electrical accessories, foam products, toys, etc.
How about PVC pyrolysis?
It is not recommended for disposing of PVC with pyrolysis machine. Because this plastic waste contains chlorine and is not easy to refine. Moreover, it is easy to corrode equipment and pipe fittings (stainless steel). In general, PVC includes films, cables, floors, pipes, sheets, shoe soles, toys, doors and windows, wire sheaths, stationery, etc.
Besides plastic waste, the oil pyrolysis machine is suitable for waste tires, aluminum plastics, wires, cables, sludge, chemical waste, rubber powder,etc. Welcome to contact us to get your own oil pyrolysis project system at any time.



In order to improve the efficiency of plastic to oil, we recommend you feed material by professional hydraulic feeder. It has the same size outlet with the plastic pyrolysis reactor inlet. So when hydraulic pushing plate work, all material will enter into the reactor – without material falling.
Then, under the action of high temperature and oxygen-free conditions, plastic waste will turn plastic into oil gas. This is the most important role in plastic to oil process. For commercial plastic pyrolysis, using a plastic pyrolysis reactor is the best choice. Large capacity and less time.
But how to convert the gas into liquid plastic oil? You only need a condensing tank. With the help of water cooling system, generated oil gas will transform into liquid oil quickly.
Next, the plastic oil will reserve into the light oil tank for temporary storage. During this period, plastic pyrolysis will sediment to ensure the product properties stability.
