Plastic pollution has become a central issue in the global environmental crisis. Statistics show that only about 9% of plastics produced worldwide are recycled annually, while the rest are landfilled, incinerated, or leaked into natural environments, posing severe threats to ecosystems and human health. Against this backdrop, plastic pyrolysis systems have emerged as a game-changing green solution. By converting waste plastics into fuel or chemical feedstocks, they achieve dual goals: resource circulation and carbon reduction. Among innovators, Chinese tech firm Niutech stands out as a global leader with its cutting-edge continuous pyrolysis technology. Its solutions, applied in over 30 countries, are transforming waste plastics from an “environmental burden” into an “energy asset,” offering scalable and replicable models for plastic recycling.
I. Core Advantages of Plastic Pyrolysis Technology
Pyrolysis decomposes high-molecular polymers into small-molecule products under oxygen-free or low-oxygen conditions. Compared to traditional landfilling or incineration, its advantages include:
1. Efficient Resource Conversion: Pyrolysis oil from plastics can replace fossil fuels, reducing reliance on non-renewable energy.
2. Environmental Benefits: No toxic emissions (e.g., dioxins). Advanced gas purification ensures compliance with strict global standards.
3. Versatile Waste Processing: Handles mixed or contaminated plastics (e.g., medical waste) that mechanical recycling cannot process, addressing “plastic recycling blind spots.”
II. Niutech: A Pioneer Solving Industry Challenges
As China’s pyrolysis technology leader, Niutech has spent over 30 years tackling three global technical hurdles: system coking, dynamic sealing during material transfer, and product polymerization. It holds 110+ patents, complies with EU CE and German TUV certifications, and leads national standard development.

Niutech’s self-developed industrial continuous pyrolysis systems feature:
· Smart control (PLC/DCS) enabling 24/7 operation with 10+ years’ service life.
· Optimized heat transfer and temperature control for uniform decomposition, achieving industry-leading oil yields.
· Closed-loop processing with dechlorination agents and waste heat recycling, cutting carbon emissions by 2.9 tons per ton of plastic processed.
Beyond innovation, Niutech drives industry standards worldwide. Key projects include:
1. Denmark Waste Plastic Project
Scale: 20,000 tons/year (low-value plastics like bags and mulch film).
Outcome: Pyrolysis oil supplied to BASF for “closed-loop recycling” into new plastics/chemicals.
2. Thailand Urban Plastic Project
Scale: 30,000 tons/year (mixed municipal waste plastics).
Outcome: Stable operation for 10+ years; upgraded pyrolysis oil replaces conventional fuels.
3. China’s Medical Waste Breakthrough
First continuous pyrolysis system for high-risk waste (IV tubes, cotton swabs), ensuring virus inactivation and resource recovery.
4. ISCC-Certified Tire Project
EU ISCC EU/PLUS certification allows pyrolysis products to enter premium renewable energy markets, helping firms comply with CBAM.
Niutech’s success proves pyrolysis is not just an environmental tool but a strategic lever reshaping global resource cycles. As carbon tariffs (e.g., EU CBAM) and plastic bans expand, this technology will become pivotal in solving the plastic crisis. Niutech plans to scale applications globally through tech licensing and partnerships, advancing humanity toward a “zero plastic waste” era.
