Do not treat a reactor name or daily capacity as a complete project specification.
Feedstock, preparation, operating continuity, condensation, gas safety, product handling, environmental controls, utilities and local delivery scope must be configured together.
Approved small-scale reference
YSX-F1 to YSX-F5 denote 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 t/day skid or modular planning references for tire, plastic or oily-sludge trials.
Material balance
Oil, gas, solids and metal-bearing outputs require representative feedstock, stable-run data and an agreed sampling boundary.
Commercial boundary
Prices, operating costs, product value and return require dated quotations and local market evidence.
Source control: approved YOTO group product register. Final parameters are issued on the project-specific technical agreement.
YUSHUNXIN PLASTIC PYROLYSIS
Waste Plastic Pyrolysis Plant Configured From Feedstock Chemistry
Plan pre-treatment, thermal processing, dewaxing, condensation, tail-gas handling and product storage as one project boundary. Plastic type, chlorine risk, moisture and feed consistency determine whether a proposed route is technically meaningful.
FEEDSTOCK FIRST
Plastic category alone is not enough for plant selection.
Polymer mix
PP, PE and PS may be suitable within a reviewed mix; PVC and other chlorine-bearing materials require special attention.
Physical condition
Film, rigid plastic, fluff, shredded material, moisture, dirt and metal contamination.
Supply stability
Daily availability, composition variation, storage and pre-treatment consistency.
Product objective
Define the intended oil fraction, gas use, residue handling and local sales or use boundary.
PROCESS BOUNDARY
Control the material before, during and after thermal treatment.
- 01
Sort and characterize
Confirm polymer mix, moisture, chlorine risk, additives and incompatible materials.
- 02
Prepare the feed
Shredding, cleaning or drying is selected from the incoming condition and feeding method.
- 03
Feed and thermally process
Batch or continuous architecture is matched to supply stability, operating plan and site capability.
- 04
Manage wax and condensation
Wax-forming feedstocks may require a project-configured dewaxing stage before or within condensation.
- 05
Handle gas, oil and residue
Define non-condensable gas use, oil storage, residue cooling and tail-gas treatment.
PROCESS MEDIA & EQUIPMENT CONTEXT
Connect each equipment area to the operating basis.
These images show the furnace, overall layout, workshop context and output-handling area together with their process roles.
APPROVED CONFIGURATION BASIS
Use the reference envelope as a discussion starting point.
No universal oil yield, fixed price, emissions result or project profitability is stated. These depend on verified feedstock, local energy and product economics, operating conditions and regulatory requirements.
PROJECT GATES
Four reviews should be complete before procurement.
Feedstock gate
Composition, moisture, chlorine, ash, metal and supply consistency.
Process gate
Pre-treatment, feeding, thermal architecture, dewaxing, condensation and residue handling.
Site gate
Utilities, storage, fire safety, emissions controls, labor and maintenance access.
Commercial gate
Scope inclusions, local obligations, product outlet, acceptance method and delivery boundary.
PROJECT FAQ
Avoid comparing plants before the feedstock is comparable.
Can mixed plastic be processed?
Potentially, but the expected polymer and contamination range must be defined. Chlorine-bearing and incompatible materials can change process, corrosion and gas-treatment requirements.
How much oil will the plant produce?
No universal yield is published. Yield depends on representative feedstock composition, moisture, contaminants, operating conditions, condensation boundary and measurement method.
Should I choose batch or continuous operation?
The choice depends on feedstock preparation and stability, plant scale, labor model, maintenance plan, site capability and investment stage.
Does the equipment automatically satisfy local emissions rules?
No. Destination-country permits, emission limits, monitoring and site obligations must be confirmed as part of the project boundary.
START THE PLASTIC REVIEW
Share composition, contamination and operating plan.
The project desk will review missing facts before discussing configuration or price.
Waste-plastic pyrolysis starts with polymer identification and sorting
PE-, PP- and selected PS-rich streams can follow different thermal and condensation behavior. PVC, PET, brominated plastics, medical plastics and e-waste plastics require separate assessment.
Follow the material, vapor, liquid, gas and solid paths
The reactor is one part of the line. Commercial operability depends on how each stream is prepared, transferred, controlled and discharged.
- 01Material characterization
- 02Feed preparation and sealed transfer
- 03Controlled thermal conversion
- 04Vapor separation and staged condensation
- 05Non-condensable gas safety and reuse
- 06Solid cooling, discharge and product handling
Configuration questions that change the proposal
The following points should be resolved before selecting a capacity or preparing a commercial quotation.
Polymer composition
Confirm PE, PP, PS, PVC and PET proportions instead of describing the feed simply as mixed plastic.
Halogen control
PVC and brominated additives can change corrosion, gas-cleaning and recovered-liquid requirements.
Wax management
Plastic-derived vapors and liquids may require temperature-controlled lines, insulation and condensation staging.
Product route
Define whether recovered liquid is intended for permitted fuel use, refinery feed evaluation or another locally accepted outlet.
Make utilities and product outlets visible before investment
A useful feasibility review connects the mass balance, energy balance, operating schedule and local product route.
Operating schedule
Define planned hours per day, shutdown windows, cleaning strategy, labor model and feedstock storage capacity.
Energy integration
Evaluate non-condensable gas reuse, startup fuel, electrical loads, cooling demand and optional downstream energy use as one balance.
Quality control
Set sampling points for incoming material, condensate fractions, recovered solids, wastewater and exhaust gas.
Commercial boundary
Budgetary results remain conditional until the feedstock, site, product route and local compliance requirements are confirmed.
See the connected equipment boundary.
Reference visuals support early layout discussion. Final equipment, arrangement and interfaces are confirmed from the project material and site.

| Polymer preparation | Sorting, shredding, drying and removal of incompatible fractions | PE, PP, PS, PVC, PET and additive profile |
| Feed and conversion | Density control, sealed transfer, reactor and heating system | Bulk density, melt behavior and operating duty |
| Wax and liquid handling | Temperature-controlled vapor lines, staged condensation and storage | Wax tendency and target recovered-liquid route |
| Halogen and gas control | Material exclusion, corrosion review and gas-treatment provisions | PVC, brominated additives and local limits |
| Residue and utilities | Solid discharge, cooling, water and electrical interfaces | Residue classification and site conditions |
Advance the project only when the required evidence is available.
Each gate turns customer information into a defined technical or commercial output for the next decision.

Answers define the engineering boundary; they do not replace representative material testing or local compliance review.
What determines the continuous pyrolysis equipment list?
Feedstock form, composition, moisture, contamination, planned operating schedule, recovered-product route, site utilities and permit requirements determine the configuration.
Can tires, plastics and oily sludge use exactly the same line?
No. They may share thermal-conversion principles, but their preparation, feeding, corrosion, condensation, solid handling and environmental controls differ materially.
Can recovered oil performance be guaranteed from a general material description?
No. Representative analysis and an agreed sampling method are required before recovered-liquid quantity, quality or downstream use can be evaluated.
What should be included in acceptance testing?
Define feedstock, run duration, mass balance, operating stability, sampled outputs, utilities, safety interlocks and the applicable emissions or residue tests.
Define the material before selecting the equipment.
Share a representative material description, available volume, site status and target outputs. YUSHUNXIN will use those facts to prepare the relevant process boundary and configuration discussion.
