How much money is needed to set up a small scale pyrolysis plant？

The cost of setting up a small scale pyrolysis plant is not high, and you can get a quicker return at a lower cost and lower risk. Generally speaking, the cost of investing in a small scale pyrolysis plant mainly includes five aspects: machine investment, raw material investment, pyrolysis plant site investment, operation investment and labor cost.

1. Machine investment: According to the scale of production, the machine investment cost ranges from USD20,000 to USD100,000, mainly depending on the model, output, configuration and scale of the equipment. The prices of small scale pyrolysis machine produced by different manufacturers are also different, so the investment cost of equipment needs to be confirmed with the manufacturers.

Two kinds of small scale pyrolysis plant

For small scale pyrolysis plant, you can choose frame-type pyrolysis machine and batch-type pyrolysis machine. And there are also a variety of processing capacities to choose from: 500KG, 1T, 2T, 5TPD, 10TPD, 12TPD, 15TPD, etc. In general, 10 tons/day pyrolysis plant is the mainstream model, which realizes automatic production and operation at a relatively low price. But if you want to test run, you can buy a small scale frame-type pyrolysis machine of 500KG/1-3TPD, which is easy to install and easy to operate.

2. Raw material investment: Raw material investment is the investment cost for processing raw materials, such as waste tires, waste rubber, waste plastics, oil sludge, coal tar oil, etc. The purchase price of raw materials of different regions, different types, and different purity varies greatly. Of course, some areas even have relevant policy support, and you can get free waste tires, waste plastics, etc.

3. Site investment: When choosing a pyrolysis plant site, you need to consider the equipment footprint, plant area, raw material area, product storage workshop, power consumption control area, and worker's office and rest area. The cost of site investment is mainly determined by the local prices, the location and size of the pyrolysis plant. The pyrolysis plant site can be purchased or leased according to its actual situation, and the investment cost is naturally different.

4. Operation investment: The operation investment cost mainly comes from the consumption of electricity, fuel and water. According to the size of the equipment specification configuration, the power consumption is about 15-30kw/h; coal, fuel oil, biomass pellets or natural gas are used as heating fuel, and the syn-gas generated during the pyrolysis process can also be recycled, which can save more than half of the fuel Consumption; DOING pyrolysis plant uses circulating water, almost no water consumption.

5. Labor cost: Generally, for small scale pyrolysis plant, it requires about 3 workers to maintain the normal operation of a set of small scale pyrolysis plant. The specific labor cost should be based on the local consumption level and price level.
