On January 22, 2026, Beston Group hosted a landmark on-site operation tour at its pilot plant in Jiaozuo City. Industry experts, partners, and investors gathered to witness live — from first ignition to continuous oil output — the full operational cycle of the BLJ-20, Beston’s most advanced plastic pyrolysis system to date.
The Technology: Pyrolysis and Distillation, Finally as One
The centerpiece of the day was the BLJ-20 Pyrolysis-Distillation Integrated Plant, officially launched in September 2025. Unlike conventional systems that treat pyrolysis and distillation as separate stages, the BLJ-20 unifies the entire workflow into a single, seamless process — dramatically cutting energy consumption while delivering a measurable upgrade in output oil quality.
This is not incremental improvement. It is a fundamental rethinking of how plastic-to-fuel conversion should work.
A Day in Full
Chapter1: Morning | 10:10 AM – 11:30 AM: Live Equipment Operation
📍 Pilot Base & Manufacturing Workshop
At precisely 10:10 AM, the ignition command was given. As the BLJ-20 roared to life , visitors followed every stage of the startup sequence up close — gaining hands-on insight into the equipment’s architecture, engineering precision, and Beston’s rigorous production management standards across materials, welding, and quality control.
Chapter2: Afternoon | 2:30 PM – 4:00 PM: Technical Deep Dive
📍 Conference Room
Beston’s engineering leadership took the floor for an open Q&A session. Attendees probed the team on temperature control accuracy, operating cost structures, and real-world ROI projections. The discussion was candid, data-driven, and left participants with a clear-eyed view of the BLJ-20’s commercial viability .
Chapter3: Afternoon | 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM: Oil Sample Showcase
📍 Pilot Base — Sample Display Area
By 4:00 PM, the BLJ-20 had been running steadily for six hours. Guests made their way to the sampling area to inspect freshly produced output — and the results spoke for themselves:
Naphtha — Crystal clear in appearance; a premium-grade feedstock for the chemical and petrochemical industries.
Non-Standard Diesel — Ready for direct industrial combustion or further refining into higher-value fuel products.
The visible quality of both samples drew strong interest and set the tone for the conversations that followed.

Looking Ahead
The January 22 open day was more than a product demonstration — it was a proof of concept delivered in real time, under real conditions, before real industry eyes.
We extend our sincere gratitude to every partner and expert who joined us. Your engagement and trust are what challenge us to keep raising the bar. As we look to the road ahead, Beston remains unwavering in its commitment: pushing the boundaries of pyrolysis technology, and building the infrastructure for a truly circular, low-carbon future.
