βš™οΈ HOW A PYROLYSIS PLANT WORKS

Pyrolysis is a technology that converts plastic waste into useful fuel and raw materials without burning it.

  • Collection & Sorting: Plastic waste is gathered and separated from metals and non-recyclables.
  • Shredding: Plastics are cut into smaller pieces for efficient processing.
  • Oxygen-Free Heating: The plastic is heated in a sealed chamber at high temperatures (300–500Β°C).
  • Vapor Formation: The heated plastic breaks down into hydrocarbon vapors.
  • Condensation: Vapors are cooled and converted into liquid fuel.
  • Final Products: Pyrolysis oil, syngas, and carbon black are produced.

🌱 BENEFITS OF PYROLYSIS
  • Reduces plastic pollution in rivers and landfills.
  • Produces alternative fuel for industrial and local use.
  • Creates employment opportunities for youth.
  • Supports a circular economy by turning waste into value.
  • Reduces dependence on traditional fossil fuels.

🧱 PRODUCTS MADE FROM PLASTIC WASTE
  • Plastic bricks and interlocking paving blocks.
  • Roofing tiles and plastic lumber.
  • School desks and chairs.
  • Dustbins, flower pots, and water tanks.
  • Plastic-modified road asphalt.
  • Fuel oil and alternative industrial diesel.
