1. Municipal Solid Waste Plastic to Purified Pyrolysis Oil to Replace Diesel
- APChemi licensed technology and supplied a 10 TPD pyrolysis plant to a Client in Africa.
- The plant processes municipal solid waste segregated plastic, clearing over 9,000,000 kg of plastic waste since its inception.
- It produces 7,000 L/day of high-quality pyrolysis oil, which has replaced industrial diesel in nearby industries.
- APChemi is working closely with the Client to raise funds, provide technology and engineering support, and scale up the project to five times its current size.
2. Multilayer Packaging (MLP) Plastic Waste to Circular Products

- APChemi supplied a cutting-edge 6 TPD pyrolysis plant and technology to a leading producer of multi-layer packaging. Multilayer packaging is the most challenging feed stock for pyrolysis, but, not for APChemi.
- After commissioning, APChemi operated the plant for 2 years, producing industrial diesel, fuel gas, and industrial chemicals.
- The excess pyrolysis gas was used as a fuel to distil 80,000 litres of water per day in a Multi-Effect Evaporator.
- The feedstock composition included multilayer packaging waste containing PET, PVC, Aluminum, and other mixed plastics.
- APChemi developed a purification process to meet the feedstock quality requirements of polymer producers, advancing the circular economy for hard-to-recycle multi-layer packaging.
3. Empowering Pyrolysis Entrepreneurs

4. Mixed Plastic Waste to Pyrolysis Oil
- In 2018, APChemi delivered a 8 TPD Plastic Pyrolysis Plant and technology to a pyrolysis entrepreneur.
- APChemi was responsible for the initial design, engineering, fabrication, and supply of equipment.
- The plant was installed and commissioned ahead of schedule, with a capacity of over 8 TPD, and has been performing well since.
- APChemi provided extensive training and support during the startup and commissioning stage, ensuring a smooth handover.
- The Client has expressed satisfaction with APChemi's technology, service, and commitment to their success, stating their intention to re-engage APChemi for future expansion.
- This project has now achieved ISCC Plus certification and is supplying purified pyrolysis oil for production of advanced recycled circular plastics using APChemi's technology.
