Depolymerization Technology Waste plastics and tires are long-chain polymers, containing more than 50,000 carbon atoms, directly linked by the cross-link or branched chains. Depolymerization decomposes the long-chain to shorter chains. Depolymerization is the process of the molecular decomposition, larger molecules are cracking to smaller molecules.

Depolymerization Technology The result is the generation of Poly-fuel® - „green“ synthetic (fuel) oil Poly-carbon® - soot (carbon black) Poly-gas® - synthetic gas Environmentally friendly, dealing with the comprehensive issue of waste disposal Energetically independent, using the input material for its own operation, while at the same time it is possible to generate electric power and heat (CHP) and comprehensively - ecologically and energetically – utilize waste polymers

Depolymerization Unit The thermal decomposition means chemical breakdown of polymer chains at oxygen-poor or oxygen-free environment in a properly designed reactor. In this way, the energy content of plastic waste is recovered better efficiency. Also a big advantage is that the resulting liquid, gas and solid products can utilize as primarily energy source and secondly the chemical industry can use as secondary raw materials.

Depolymerization Unit Technology Benefits Lower reaction temperature, ranging from the minimum of 275 °C up to 445 °C at maximum (depending on the type of the input material) Synthetic oil recovery ratio higher by 10 % compared to other technologies Process with zero emissions: no damage to environment Shorter reaction time and larger power savings Optimum conversion of polymer waste to hydrocarbon fluid with negligible trace of wax The most modern cleaning systems ensuring that the content of sulphur in the synthetic oil to be lower than 75 ppm Patented – highly effective catalyst with very low impacts for production process Continuous production process with lower demand for labour and operators and more

Benefits of Depolymerization Process Low-temperature catalytic depolymerization of plastics, oils and tires offers the following benefits: generates quality fuel with near-zero emissions facilitates to solve the issue of the soil pollution with plastic, oils and tires recovers energy from the waste helps to recycle the carbon with its subsequent utilization. The waste breaks down to utilizable end products: synthetic oil, gas and soot

Depolymerization input-output ratios Conversion of waste plastic and tyres to synthetic oil, soot and synthetic gas The unit converts polymers to precious fuels. Technology yield, input, output ratios:
