Report Contents

This report contains the following items:

  • How to integrate tire pyrolysis oil (TPO) and plastic pyrolysis oil (PPO) into conventional refinery operations, incl. pathways, processing steps, yields, and sustainability implications.
  • What are the composition/impurity differences between TPO and PPO, and the operational challenges they create.
  • What are the core refinery unit interfaces: distillation, FCC, hydroprocessing (hydrotreating/hydrocracking), and steam cracking— and how are each these used in co-processing concepts?
  • What are the common processing requirements: pretreatment (e.g., filtration/demetallization), hydroprocessing reactions (HDS/HDN/HDO, saturation, dechlorination), and quality control/contaminant monitoring.
  • Sustainability & certification: mass-balance certification options and how recycled/renewable claims are handled for TPO and PPO.

Who Benefits

  • Refineries and petrochemical sites evaluating co-processing options for TPO/PPO across standard units (distillation, FCC, hydroprocessing, steam cracking).
  • Pyrolysis project developers needing a refinery-relevant framing of feed quality, pretreatment, and routing considerations.
  • Steam cracker / chemical recycling stakeholders focused on PPO upgrading requirements and contaminant thresholds (notably chlorine).
  • Sustainability, certification, and commercial teams working with mass-balance systems and recycled/renewable content claims.

Report: Alternate Applications for Pyrolysis Char

This report offers a thorough and critical review of alternative applications. It functions as an add-on module that enhances the planning of any ELT pyrolysis project by expanding and stress-testing the char offtake and valorization strategy early in development. As global pyrolysis capacity grows, large volumes of char need technically feasible and economically scalable outlets. The report assesses these pathways based on technical readiness, commercial maturity, process complexity, and realistic market absorption potential.
