Plastics
| WWS, through its affiliates, offers a viable, economical and
environmentally responsible alternative to current methods of recycling and
disposal of plastic waste. The system uses catalytic pyrolysis to efficiently convert plastics (primarily polyolefins) into crude
oil. The system is modular in design. A single module can produce up to 775 litres of crude oil for every ton of typical plastic waste processed. System capacity can range from 200 tons to 400 tons of plastic wastes processed per month. Overall plant capacity can be easily scaled up by adding additional modules. The system is very robust by design, and can easily handle plastic that is contaminated with other kinds of waste such as metals, glass, dirt, water, etc. The system can tolerate up to 25% of other waste in the input plastic waste stream. As a result, a key advantage of this process is that the plastic wastes do not need to be pre-sorted, cleaned or dried prior to processing, which in turn significantly reduces the overall cost of operation. The output crude oil is high-grade and can be further processed in a refinery or used to power low-rpm machines such as electric generation turbines. |
