Plastic To Diesel

Ozomoenergy1Approximately 20% of the waste in  modern landfills is non-degradable plastic. Ozmotech have created a solution to convert this waste into diesel fuel.

Their patented process uses liquefaction, pyrolysis and catalytic breakdown to render 1kg of waste plastic into 950ml of oil or Green Fuel. This contains the same energy content as conventional diesels, but with "significantly reduced emissions levels". Existing diesel engines are said to run fully effectively on these fuels with no engine modification. It works best with PP, PE and PS plastics but can also manage ABS, PA, PUR and EVA but is not so keen on PVC or PET.

  1. The Ozmotech pyrolisis concept has been outdated by this one

    Catalytic Depolymerization

    http://www.globalfinest.com/tech

    This new technology take all bio mass… even the dreaded PVC and PET.. emissions free!

    Its up and running in America and Europe..

    This Low temperature process avoids all the drawbacks of Pyrolisis

    Worth a look

  2. We are willing to start a plant for converting plastics into diesel.. please give me usefull information and company names.

  3. I am interested in your capability of making waste pe plastic into oil.
    Fyi, after break down into wax, it uses catalyst
    hydroisomerization to make motor oil.
    Please proceed and let me know.

  5. do you have a unit that recycle plastics into oil or diesel or gas?

    I love to know the how to recycle my plastics to teh above

  6. I would like to get information on techonology transfer for the conversion of PE films wastes to diesel oil.
    Please email information.

    Thank you

  7. Here in the Philippines plastic is increasingly becoming a problem for disposal. Looking at your write up of this topic tigger some ideas. Can you possibly send info on the minimum requirement to set up such a plant.

  8. huh?

  9. I am intersted in your process to convert plastic into diesel,ie plant cost,time it would take to get into production,footprint of plant.
    Do you have a plant in operation? If you do where is it located? When could I see it in operation?

    Thank you in advance for your quick response.

  10. i have been informed The Ozmotech pyrolisis concept has been outdated by this one (Catalytic Depolymerization)http://www.globalfinest.com/tech

    i saw both of their technology and i found out the technology is similar. what is the difference between this two technology

  11. It seems that the plant is up and running.

    The website has been updated

  12. CAN SEND ME AN OFFER FOR 3000TONS/YR OF FURNACE OIL MAKING CIF DUBAI

  13. I’m Interested in your technology. Would you please send me your best offer for technology transfer. Thanks a lot!

  14. this is very good invention sir. can i hope that you send me some brief method for diesel makingby plastic for to know for my science club students not for any other purpose thanking you in anticipation

  15. please let us know the cost of putting such a facility ( CREATING DIESEL OIL FROM PLASTIC WASTE)

  16. Interesting technology. I would be interested in providing finance (and arranging product offtake) for viable waste to liquids technology and projects implementing same.

  17. Dear Matt
    How would a person contact you to develop a project?

  18. please send me more information
    my client is looking for diversification options into power generation

  19. plese send me full detail informationregarding plastic diesel project

  20. trhe plastic to diesel conversion can it be contaminated plastic(out of the land fill) or does it have to be clean?
    I am looking for information regarding the optimal design and cost for comtaminated plastic`s.
    thanks

  21. hi
    please let me know more about your tehcnology and budgetary poposal
    regards

  22. we are looking at several options as we have a very large quantity of HIPS (ABS) to work with…can samples be sent in for analysis and breakdown purposes? richard161@sympatico.ca

  23. We can sell CDP Diesel Plant

    Summary:
    Waste Processing Capability: All hydrocarbon-rich waste and Bio Mass

    Material Input Capacity: > 10,000 + tons / yr
    Input Moisture Content Required: < 10 %
    Input Material Size Required: 4,000,000 + liters / yr

    Additional Revenue: Additional revenue derived from charging generators for collecting their waste materials are not considered in these calculations because this figure may deviate depending on the country and type of raw materials. For highly contaminated oils from transformers revenue of up to US$500/ton is possible.

    Catalyst Cost approx. 4.5 cents per 1 kilo of input materials

    Operational Personnel Required: 4 operators

    Maintenance and Repair Cost: 2% of initial investment/yr

    Total Manufacturing Costs per liter of diesel oil: < US$0.35/l
    Production capacity: 500/1000+ Ltr/hr of high quality diesel fuel.

    Price FOB Europe 4 Millions Euros – 500L/Hour

    Price FOB Europe 5,5 Millions Euros – 1000L/Hour

    For further information please contact us

  24. 1.Material Input Capacity: > 10,000 + tons / yr – This is clear.
    2. Input Moisture Content Required: < 10 % – This is clear.
    3. Input Material Size Required: 4,000,000 + liters / yr – - This is NOT clear. How is this different from No. 1 above.

    Kindly clarify how many litres of diesel can be got from 100 tonnes of pkastic waste ?
    Thanks

    what are the power requirements?

  25. what happens to gases created from the conversion

  26. The waste combustable gasses would be flared off.
