Is there a market for pyrolysis oil?

Pyrolysis oil is one of the main target products produced in the process of waste pyrolysis with the waste pyrolysis machine, which has wide applications and a large market. And according to effective statistics from major data platforms around the world, Global Pyrolysis Oil Market size was valued at USD 322.36 Billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 334.71 Billion in 2023 to USD 459.30 Billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.06% in the forecast period (2024-2031).

Pyrolysis oil obtained from pyrolysis machine

Firstly, as a cost-effective alternative fuel, pyrolysis oil has a higher calorific value than other common fuels, which provides it with application prospects. Secondly, governments in many countries have been promoting the development of renewable energy and recycling, while pyrolysis oil, as a recycling resource, has also received policy support. Moreover, with the increasing size of large energy users such as industrial parks and power plants, their demand for alternative fuels is also increasing, which also provides market space for pyrolysis oil.

Applications of pyrolysis oil

Specifically, pyrolysis oil mainly has the following marketing channels: First, it is directly used as an alternative fuel for industrial boilers and power plants for power generation and heat production. The second is to be refined and sold as fuel oil to other corporate users. Third, it can produce other chemical products, such as gasoline and diesel, after deep processing. These main channels make the pyrolysis oil widely available.

Generally speaking, as a recycling resource, pyrolysis oil has a broad market prospect. Then how can we get good quality pyrolysis oil?

DOING pyrolysis machine for sale

As we all know, pyrolysis oil is obtained from some solid waste or hazardous waste, such as waste tires, plastics, oil sludge, medical waste, household waste, construction waste, etc. during the pyrolysis process with the waste pyrolysis machine. So if you want to get good quality pyrolysis oil, there are two main points that you need to care about:

1. Processed raw material

Different types of waste have varying compositions of hydrocarbons, contaminants, and additives, which will influence the yield and quality of pyrolysis oil. Take the most common raw material-waste plastics as an example, there are different types, which have various oil yield, varying from 90%-95% of pure PP/PE/PS plastics to 50% of aluminum plastic. Of course, it is certain that the higher the plastic oil yield and purity, the higher the pyrolysis oil quantity and the better the pyrolysis oil quality.

2. Waste pyrolysis machine

During the pyrolysis process, the waste processed will go through the whole system of the pyrolysis machine, from pyrolysis reactor, heating system to cooling system and purifying system. Each part is important. So selecting a pyrolysis machine manufacturer who fabricates all systems with a serious attitude and strict quality is very important. Take the cooling system as an example, the equipment design and materials will directly affect the condensation effect of oil and gas during pyrolysis, and thus affect the yield and quality of the resulting pyrolysis oil.
