How to build a plastic to diesel plant？

Recently, plastic to diesel project is popular because its high profit. Many investors are going into the plastic to diesel business. Then how to build a plastic to diesel plant? The following introduction will be helpful for you to work on this project.

Of course, you need some basic preparation, such as raw materials, factory site, and fund. The most important thing is to choose equipment.

1. Choose plastic to diesel plant

This is the most important step. Plastics to diesel now has the following two solutions: one is plastic to diesel integrated machine, and the other is pyrolysis machine and distillation machine. The differences between the two solutions are as follows.

Two solutions of plastics to diesel

The advantage of the plastic to diesel integrated machine is that it can directly convert plastic to diesel. This equipment is an integrated design of a fully automatic PLC control system. It is easy to operate, saves labor, occupies a small area, and has high production efficiency, can achieve full continuous production. The disadvantage is that this equipment has strict requirements on the feed size. It is necessary to crush the plastic in advance and then feed it into the reactor. The price of this equipment is about 2 times more expensive than pyrolysis machine and distillation machine, so customers with sufficient budget and high local labor costs can choose this equipment.

Pyrolysis machine and distillation machine are two independently produced systems, which are two different processes. First, plastic is pyrolysis into plastic oil through pyrolysis machine, and then refined plastic oil into diesel through distillation machine. The advantage of this type is that the equipment is cost-effective, there is no strict requirement on the feed size of the raw materials, the process flow is simple, and the operation technology requirements are low. The disadvantage is that it is one batch one day requires daily feeding and slag discharge, which occupies a larger area and requires more labors. For customers with low budgets and low local labor costs, they can choose pyrolysis machine and distillation machine. The picture below shows the installation of pyrolysis machine and distillation machine in Columbia.

2. Raw materials

Plastics are everywhere and even available for free. If you plan to buy packaged plastics from plastic suppliers, you need to consult and investigate the specific price of plastics in the local market.

3. Factory site

You need to find a land suitable for plastics to diesel equipment, it is best to stay away from residential areas, but the transportation should be convenient, water and electricity supply is sufficient, you can build a simple steel structure factory shed, if you have sufficient budget, you can build a complete factory.

4. Fund

You need to prepare sufficient funds to purchase plastic to diesel plant, build the factory, collect plastic, equipment installation and operation, etc. If you do not have sufficient funds, you can find partners or apply for bank loan from the local bank.

I just introduced some basic preparations of plastics to diesel plant in general. If you want to invest in this project and want to know more details about the equipment, please contact us to get a more detailed and targeted solution.
