How to turn plastic waste into diesel fuel cheaply

Chemical knowledge

There is someone in my country that I ask help me to start in pyrolyze method, because he knows this, he's scientific man.
I receive this email:
" Vous verrez que ce n'est pas aussi simple à opérer il faut des connaissances chimiques et techniques poussées pour opérer ce type d'équipement."

Must have these Chemical knowledge to be able to operate a pyrolyze system?

P.S. Sorry for my english.

Hi dosyl,
sorry for not replying to your PM. Sure, it would be advisable to know the basic chemistry, but I am certain, that if you read all the posts in this topic, you will learn all the chemistry you need for this project. It is not that hard
Hope this helps.

how to turn plastic waste into feul chealy

I'M very sory everybody for my english
dir jetijs
Your results are impressive with one kg PE you get 0.72 Kg liquid fuel
Such efficiency is higher than 1 liter crude oil produced in the distillation of the oil company gets only 600 mml liquid fuel
you use of the catalyst is supplied from china have You got plans to recycle catalyst? Or coke of the zeolites
thank you

hello Jetijs;

I'm attending to do this project as my graduation project, but when I suggested you idea, my professor said that there should be a nitrogen gas enters the reactor and leave it with gases; so that the gasses formed do not explode at the high temperature at their auto ignition temperature, I did not see you saying anything about it, I really really like your structure and the way you explained everything, but what do you think I should say to my professor ? You did not enter any nitrogen gas, did you ??

Hi Rahal,
please read through all this topic, it has already been discussed multiple times and I hate to repeat myself, well, actually I am just lazy. The short version is - no need for any gasses, why? Read the topic and find out. It is really very much advisable to read all the posts through as most of your questions are already answered.

congnghiah4,
I got aboyt 750mL of fuel from 1 liter of shredded PE. But one liter of shredded plastic weights also about 750 grams, so the efficiency is even better. Don't confuse grams with mililiters. The 750 mL of fuel actually weights around 500mL or something like that. You lose mass in the process, but gain volume due to reduced material density.
Thanks,
Jetijs

Thanks Jetijs, I willm thanks for your time

hi jetijs
The density of PE was 0.92 kg / liter, but the proportion of you such a highconversion efficiency.
According to my understanding of the PE segment cracking gasoline. but thissegment is low density.
Such conversion efficiency 1 kg> = 1 liter liquid feul

Above are the results I obtained from my model
Products 25% gasoline 95 octane
Products DO 45% compared to the raw input
index cetan 55.59
gas 15%, carbon residue 5%

Hi friends:
I have used pumice stones in the refluctor (50% volume) and the catalyst has worked very well imho.
HDPE fuel has performed well in a Perkins motor and in an old Bmw.
I still don´t have temperature control but I will try to install it soon.
I also have to achieve gasoline fraction distillation by heating the obtained oil.
Thanks to all members for your help

PD:With the gas we have also run a small gasoline generator but it does not have enough pressure to keep it running further than 4-5 seconds but anyway it seems very powerful

Here at last is a picture of my reactor. The bottom part is made from a small propane tank . the rest is made up from threaded pipe fittings. It has 2 pressure relief valves, one directly connected to the reactor and the other at the top of the reflux/catalyst tower. I have fitted a small 400w heater to the bottom of the tower and will soon fit a cooling coil to the top. The reactor is covered by and insulated jacket and heated by a propane burner.

Hello :
Your reactor unit is very interesting . No details are mentioned with the pics.
One picture#855, U posted seems to be of a pump+motor. Kindly explain about it ? Is it a vacuum pump for doing the reaction under vacuum or nitrogen gas pumping unit for putting a nitrogen blanket during the reaction ?

Basic feedstock?

26 pages of fascinating & interesting stuff. Could somebody please give me a heads up on the type of PP and/or PE to use. Ive come across reground, granulated, pelleted, high and low grade with allsorts of price ranges from £300 to £600 a MT.

Below is a link of just one of about 20 companies ive been researching.

Polymers plastics PVC nylon PA66 HDPE LDPE MDPE ABS PET uPVC Granules Pellets

Thank you.

Temp control

Question: Do I need to control the temperature on the condensers (270C, 95C and 20C)?

you need to convert WMO into liquid fuel
you can use 100% WMO. I can give you a production process
efficiency 70% liquid fuel by volume compared to the volume of input
fuel in this segment with the proportion 0.82Kg/liter
