Pyrolysis reactor is the most concerned key part related to the pyrolysis business. Choosing a good-quality reactor not only means a long-time warranty but also help to save repair and maintenance cost. As a reliable pyrolysis reactor manufacturer, Beston Group ensures each reactor delivers optimal performance, efficiency, and safety for your business. View the following specifications.
Reaction Mechanism of Pyrolysis Reactor
Pyrolysis reactor can process synthetic polymers or industrial waste containing high molecular weight hydrocarbons. Core principle of the reactor is to decompose the macromolecular organic compounds in the feedstock by high temperature. This reaction breaks the chemical bonds between hydrocarbons, thus generating smaller molecules. The liquid and gaseous products of pyrolysis have a high energy value. They are more suitable for use as alternative fuels or chemical raw materials. End products of pyrolysis equipment are as follows:
- Heavier hydrocarbon molecules condense into liquid pyrolysis oil.
- Lighter non-condensable hydrocarbon molecules form syngas.
- The components that do not participate in the pyrolysis form harmless solid residues.
Applicable Raw Materials for Pyrolysis Reactor for Sale
The raw materials that can be processed by pyrolysis reactor mainly include waste plastic, oil sludge and tires. The organic components of these materials are usually produced through artificial synthesis or industrial processes. They contain a large number of complex petroleum hydrocarbon molecules. The molecular structure of these components and their changes during the pyrolysis process are as follows:
| Raw Material | Components Involved | Gas Products | Liquid Products | Solid Products |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plastic | Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), etc. | Methane, ethylene, propylene | Pyrolysis Oil | Small amount of char residue |
| Oil Sludge | Remaining petroleum components, bitumen | Solid residue (inorganics) | ||
| Tyre | Natural rubber, synthetic rubber (e.g., SBR) | Carbon black, steel wires |

Analysis of Different Pyrolysis Reactor Materials
Main furnace materials are the key factors affecting the pyrolysis reactor cost. Different types of materials are suitable for different reaction conditions. They determine the high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of the main furnace. In particular, these performances are critical for plastic to oil machine. The following are the application scenarios of these main furnace materials in different situations. Also, if you don’t know which material to choose, we will recommend a suitable solution based on your needs.
| Furnace Material | Temperature Resistance | Applicable Reactor Types |
|---|---|---|
| 310S Stainless Steel | Withstand temperature to 1035℃; High temperature oxidation corrosion resistance; |
plastic pyrolysis reactor |
| 304 Stainless Steel | Withstand temperature to 600-700℃ | oil sludge, tire pyrolysis reactor |
| Q345R Steel | Withstand temperature to 450℃ | oil sludge, tire pyrolysis reactor |
Standard-quality and Various-option Pyrolysis Chamber
Casing with Insulation Materials
When the installation of the pyrolysis project is underway, we put three layers of insulation material (aluminum silicate wool, fire-resistant concrete, and corrugated sheeting) into the space between the case and the reactor. The temperature tolerance reaches 1000 ℃. The purpose of these materials is to lower the temperature in case of scalding workers. Secondly, this casing can keep the heat constant.
Full-sealed Working Process
Beston Group‘s pyrolysis reactor for sale adopts senior static sealing material. When the pyrolysis process starts, the working process is fully sealed, which isolates oxygen. Therefore, the pyrolysis process is more efficient. Besides, there are other safety designs in the reactor, like a honeycomb filter (anti-blocking outlet tube), and temperature and pressure meters.
Personal Customization – Reactor Door
The shape and the size of the reactor are not fixed. According to your special requirement, we can customize the shape and size after analyzing accurately by Beston professional technician. The shape of the reactor door can be round, square, oval, and so on.
Combustible Gas Recycling System
In the pyrolysis process, some waste combustible gas will be generated in the reactor. This kind of gas will be processed. Customers can use syn-gas as fuel to provide heat for the reactor. This procedure will help investors to save a large amount of fuel costs.
