Plastic to Circular Naphtha

Turning discarded plastic back into hydrocarbon feedstock

Selected plastic-derived feedstocks can be thermochemically converted into pyrolysis oil, which can subsequently be conditioned, upgraded and fractionated into defined circular hydrocarbon products.

The conversion pathway

Follow one droplet through the entire process.

From discarded polymer to specification circular hydrocarbon — ten controlled stages, one continuous material journey.

  1. STAGE 01

    Plastic Feedstock

    Selected plastic-derived streams that mechanical recycling cannot economically recover.

  2. STAGE 02

    Sorting & Preparation

    Sorting, size reduction, drying and contaminant removal to a controlled feed specification.

  3. STAGE 03

    Technotherm Pyrolysis

    Controlled thermal conversion in an oxygen-limited environment cracks polymer chains.

  4. STAGE 04

    Hydrocarbon Vapour

    Long polymer molecules are broken down into recoverable hydrocarbon vapours.

  5. STAGE 05

    Condensation

    Staged cooling recovers the condensable hydrocarbon fraction as liquid.

  6. STAGE 06

    Pyrolysis Oil

    The raw plastic-derived hydrocarbon liquid — the intermediate for all downstream products.

  7. STAGE 07

    Contaminant Management

    Removal of chlorides, metals and residual solids to protect downstream quality.

  8. STAGE 08

    Upgrading

    Stabilisation and treatment to move the oil toward defined product specifications.

  9. STAGE 09

    Distillation / Fractionation

    Separation into defined boiling-range cuts under controlled distillation.

  10. STAGE 10

    Circular Naphtha

    A circular hydrocarbon feedstock for steam crackers, refineries and chemical production.

Second output

DIESEL-RANGE CIRCULAR HYDROCARBON

Alongside circular naphtha, the heavier middle-distillate fraction can be recovered separately as a diesel-range circular hydrocarbon — depending on feedstock characteristics and downstream product requirements.

Important technical note

Final product specifications depend on feedstock composition, process conditions, upgrading configuration and batch analysis. Products should therefore be supplied against agreed specifications and certificates of analysis rather than making universal fuel-specification claims.

Circularity

The circular carbon loop.

Carbon is not consumed — it is kept in circulation. Waste plastic becomes circular hydrocarbon, becomes new products, and is recovered again.
