Waste Oil Distillation Plant
The latest waste oil distillation diesel refining equipment is an efficient, environmentally friendly and energy-saving waste oil treatment unit, which can convert waste oil into diesel fuel.
The latest waste oil distillation diesel refining equipment is an efficient, environmentally friendly and energy-saving waste oil treatment unit, which can convert waste oil into diesel fuel.
Adopting a new solid catalyst process, it abandons the traditional strong acid and alkali washing method. No manual acid-base proportioning is required, making operation safer, more environmentally friendly, time-saving and labor-efficient. After distillation and refining, the oil meets non-standard diesel standards without additional decolorization, realizing high-efficiency resource and energy utilization of waste engine oil.
Application Scope
Processable Raw Materials
Pyrolysis oil from waste tires, rubber and plastics; waste engine oil, waste lubricating oil, crude oil and other waste oil products.
Final Products
Non-standard diesel, asphalt and combustible gas.
The equipment features wide applicability and can process various industrial waste oils in batches according to raw material supply. It achieves multi-purpose use with excellent economic practicality.
Technological Process
The complete workflow consists of five stages: preparation, distillation and impurity removal, decolorization and deodorization, asphalt discharge, and tail gas & flue gas purification.
-
Heat Conduction Oil Circulation Preparation
Start the thermal oil heater and pump heat conduction oil into the expansion tank. The oil fills the entire pipeline by gravity. Open valves in advance to fill the distillation reactor, catalytic tower and decolorization system for standby use.
-
Distillation & Impurity Removal
Turn on the burner to heat the distillation reactor together with the circulating thermal oil for rapid temperature rise and high-temperature distillation.Heat the thermal oil to 250℃ and maintain for one hour to evaporate moisture and emulsified components. The generated oil gas enters the horizontal condenser, liquefies and is stored temporarily in the first fraction tank.Continue heating until the reactor temperature reaches 380℃. The distilled oil gas is condensed and stored in the second fraction tank.Further heated oil gas flows into the catalytic tower. After catalytic reaction with Catalyst A and B, the refined light oil is collected into the third fraction tank.
-
Decolorization & Deodorization
Crude distilled oil has dark color and peculiar odor and requires secondary purification.Crude oil is pumped into the decolorization tank, with activated clay fed in for spiral stirring. Pigments and impurities are adsorbed by clay.The mixture is pumped into a blade filter to separate waste clay, then further fine-filtered via a bag filter to obtain clean, bright-colored non-standard diesel.
-
Asphalt Discharge
Open the slag discharge port. Residual asphalt inside the distillation reactor flows down naturally by gravity and is discharged from the bottom.
-
Tail Gas & Flue Gas Purification
Part of non-condensable combustible gas generated during high-temperature distillation is treated by water seal and desulfurization & deodorization tower, then recycled back to the reactor as heating fuel to reduce energy cost.Flue gas from distillation and gas combustion is purified by desulfurization tower spraying and discharged up to standard.
-
Performance Features
The equipment shows outstanding advantages in high efficiency, energy saving, environmental safety, simple operation, complete functionality and fast distillation speed.
-
High Efficiency & Energy Saving
Adopts high-efficiency catalytic distillation technology for full waste oil conversion, with diesel yield over 85%, greatly improving energy utilization and reducing consumption.
-
Environmental Protection & Safety
Fully enclosed catalytic distillation process ensures waste gas and residue are treated in compliance with environmental standards, guaranteeing safe and pollution-free production.
-
Simple Operation
Intelligent control system realizes automatic production, reducing manual intervention and labor intensity while boosting efficiency.
-
Multi-functional Application
Suitable for waste engine oil, waste lubricating oil, crude oil, heavy oil and other oil products to maximize resource utilization.
-
Vertical Distillation Reactor
Supports automatic high-temperature slag discharge for easy operation, residue removal and maintenance. Vertical layout occupies smaller floor area, saving land cost with better economy.
-
Dual Heating System
Combined heating by circulating heat medium and fuel enables continuous and efficient heating, saving fuel consumption and accelerating distillation speed.

Profit Prospect of Waste Oil Regeneration Project
Normally, the diesel refining yield reaches 80%–83%, with 15%–20% asphalt by-product.Non-standard diesel can directly replace standard diesel for ships, tractors and heavy oil generators to cut fuel costs. Asphalt is widely used in road paving or further refining in asphalt plants. The project enjoys promising profit margins.
