In 1950, global plastic production was about 2 million tons. It's now about 400 million tons—an increase of nearly 20,000%.

A study published in 2023 by researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory found that the economic and environmental impact of turning pyrolysis oil back into plastic was actually far ...

The agreement with Warsaw, Poland-based Contec further enables Orion to diversify its sources of tire pyrolysis oil, commonly known as TPO. “With the ConPyro® TPO supplied by Contec ...

In 2009, Xiao and his team devised a one-chamber fast pyrolysis and catalytic bio-oil upgrading system. “This eliminates the costly separate condensation and re-evaporation process required for ...

Most recyclers abandon the low-value non-metallic parts. Pyrolysis, or heating in the absence of oxygen, is one method that is often used. The metal parts turn into char and the plastic (polymer ...

The Resynergi Modules employ pyrolysis technology to convert plastic into pyrolysis oil. The Resynergi Module is engineered to convert 5 tons per day of discarded plastic into pyrolysis oil. Resynergi ...

During pyrolysis, the plastic polymers are broken down into smaller molecules, resulting in the production of liquid oil, fuel source gases such as methane, propane and butane, and char.
