Project Overview
To meet the solid waste treatment needs of Cape Town, South Africa, Beston Group deployed two BLJ-16 tire (rubber) and plastic pyrolysis equipment and a supporting BZJ-10 distillation unit. This project has been successfully put into operation, which achieved harmless and resource-efficient treatment of waste tires and plastics effectively resolved the client’s disposal difficulties.
Product:BLJ-16 Batch Pyrolysis Plant
Application:Pyrolysis waste plastics & tyres into valuable fuel oil
ConfigurationBZJ-10 distillation unit
Location:Cape Town, South Africa
8-16 t/d Batch BLJ-16 Pyrolysis Plant for a Local Plastics & Tyres Teatment Project in Cape Town
Customer Background
The Client is a leading environmental services company specializing in waste management and resource recovery, their core business involves specialized waste treatment. With the increasing amount of scrap tires (rubber) & plastic waste accumulated at factories, client was faced tremendous pressure to deal with it. According to this, they needed a solution:
Challenges Faced by Client
Solid waste treatment
The customer’s factory has a large amount of non-recyclable waste that needs to be reduced.
High cost pressure
Smelters face high fuel costs and need to reduce costs.
Inefficient operation
Wax and oil blockage during the treatment process greatly reduces the treatment efficiency.
Customized Pyrolysis Solution for Tyes & Plastic
Beston Group provided a customized design for the client: the project used two BLJ-16 batch pyrolysis plants and an additional BZJ-10 distillation unit to efficiently process non-recyclable solid waste and obtain high-quality pyrolysis fuel oil.
Processing efficiency
Each BLJ-16 processes 10-16 tons of tyres and 8-10 tons of plastics daily, with a flexible batch design that outperforms traditional methods.
High-quality products
The BZJ-10 distillation unit is specially designed for pyrolysis oil purification. It can effectively remove impurities, moisture and gum in cracked oil, greatly improving the oil quality.
Comply with regulatory requirements
BLJ-16’s treatment mode prevents oil and gas leakage, safely processes plastics & tyres to meet environmental standards, helping clients avoid fines and production halts.
Positive Outcomes
This project successfully helped client comprehensively address its core challenges in waste tyres & plastic treatment and created significant economic and social value:
I am very happy with the service your engineers provided in all fields, well done guys!Achieved Waste Volume Reduction: Successfully resolved challenges related to solid waste accumulation and environmental compliance.
Reduced Operating Costs: The pyrolysis oil produced, after being purified by the distillation, can be used directly or as fuel for the smelter or fleet trucks.
Enhanced Operational Efficiency: Effectively resolved the client’s previous issues with wax and oil blockages. The plant is now capable of running stably, efficiently, and continuously.
