The entire cycle for one 1,800 pound load of plastic takes less than one hour. To most efficiently load the P2O processor, the plastic feedstock is passed through a shredder and granulator. A hopper is loaded with approximately 1,800 pounds of waste plastic using a forklift. The plastic is loaded into the processor by a continuous conveyor belt between the hopper and reactor. The plastic is then fed into the processor chamber where it is heated by burning off-gas produced from the conversion process. In the reactor, plastic hydrocarbons are cracked into various shorter hydrocarbon chains and exit in a gaseous state. Any residue or non-usable substances remain in the processor chamber and must be removed periodically. From the processor, the gasses containing fuel oil and naphtha are condensed and separated, then proceed into temporary fuel tanks. The fuel output is transferred to additional tanks for storage automatically by the system. Our automated systems control the conveyor feed rate, manages system temperatures and the off-gas compression systems and controls the pumping out of newly created fuel to storage tanks. The entire cycle for one 1,800 pound load of plastic takes less than one hour.
