How to improve the quality of plastic pyrolysis oil?

Plastic pyrolysis technology has emerged as a promising solution for plastic recycling. However, the quality of plastic pyrolysis oil varies, which affects its suitability for application and market value. DOING, a leading manufacturer of plastic pyrolysis equipment, has developed several key strategies to significantly improve the quality of pyrolysis oil, making it a more suitable alternative fuel source and expanding its application possibilities.

Selection and processing of primary raw materials

The production of high-quality pyrolysis oil depends on the selection and processing of primary raw materials. It is important to use only high-purity resins as raw materials. Mixed or contaminated resins can cause impurities and reduce the quality of the oil.

Proper sorting can make the final product cleaner.

Cleaning: The plastic raw materials must be thoroughly cleaned of contaminants such as metal, glass, and dust. This step reduces ash and non-volatile residues in the finished oil. In addition, plastic waste should only be stored in a dry place. For example, paper mills recommend that clean plastic materials be exposed to sunlight before storage. This method improves the efficiency of the entire plastic pyrolysis process, reduces energy consumption, and improves the quality of the plastic pyrolysis oil.

Plastic pyrolysis oil refining

After extracting plastic pyrolysis oil from the pyrolysis euqipment, an important step in improving the quality of the oil is refining. The refining process separates the oil into its components based on its boiling point, which makes the oil more suitable for various purposes, and also removes water and volatile organic compounds. This process makes the final product more stable and suitable for industrial use. DOING has advanced waste pyrolysis oil refining equipment to produce high-quality diesel oil that is used in various fields, such as boilers, generators, kilns, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, and marine engines.

Purification: The previous step usually produces high-quality diesel oil. If you want a higher-quality light yellow diesel oil, you can refine the diesel oil to a finer level by adding bleaching agents, kaolin clay, and other purification systems.

Blending: pyrolysis oil can be blended with other common fuels or bio-oils to adjust its properties to suit specific needs. This method improves the efficiency of pyrolysis oil in internal combustion engines and expands its application range. For example, blending with diesel oil can improve combustion efficiency and reduce emissions.

Improving the quality of plastic pyrolysis oil is important to maximize its utilization and market value. By focusing on raw material selection, refining, and blending, manufacturers can significantly improve the quality of pyrolysis oil.
