We built this machine in 2012 to run a series of tests to convert different types of plastics onto oil. We also used this to distill the products into petrol and diesel fractions successfully.

We abandoned the project due to limited time and money, but had good results. We have kept samples of most of the test runs we did and these are included with this unit.

We spent a lot of money building this unit, so it would suit someone who is working with converting wastes to fuels and wants a test rig. This machine was running, but has since had the temperature controller removed and is missing various pipes etc. So this will only suite someone with technical knowledge and engineering and electrical skills. This is being sold "as is where is" and we will not offer any warranty or backup. As I am busy on other projects and don't have time to spend on this unit.

The reactor was machined from billet aluminium and has 1000W of cartridge elements embedded into the bottom. It also has a bolt on lid with graphite seal. The unit comes in a semi-insulated housing and with vapour outlet tubes and condenser/heat exchanger and condensate collection vessel.

This will also come with plastic feedstocks of different types. 20kg sacks of the following: PP, PE, HDPE, ABS, PC and PS.
