What is SYNTROL® ?

SYNTROL has been developed by Nill-Tech.

SYNTROL is a technology to convert

- plastics waste and/or

- waste oil

into a product oil similar to fuel oil.

SYNTROL®-Technology

SYNTROL® : the loop closes

crude oil, derivatives

plastics waste

synthesis,polymerisation

1000 kilograms of plastics yield approx. 800 kilograms of oil

SYNTROL®

„feedstock recycling“

thermolysis

Properties of the product oil

SYNTROL®

product oilfuel oil

extra light Unit

DIN 51603-1

net calorific value > 42,6 > 42,6 MJ/kg

density at 15°C < 850 < 850 kg/m³

viscosity at 20°C < 6 < 6 mm²/s

ash content << 0,01 0,01 %

sulphur - standard quality ~ 0 < 2000 mg/kg

sulphur - low sulphur quality ~ 0 < 50 mg/kg

heavy metals ~ 0 not specified

The sulphur content in the product oil is dependent upon the quality of the feeding material

Typical use for product oil

combined heat and power plants (CHP)- electricity- heat - cooling

heating plants

cement works

SYNTROL is the key to decouple the treatment of waste from theuse of energy in time and space.

Unique features of the SYNTROL®-Technology

multiple-stage process1) – increased process control

PVC tolerance1)

reactor heating1)

feeding system1)

Quench cooler1) – suppresses re-polymerisation

1) patents pending

Guiding principles of the SYNTROL®-Technology

safety

economy

ecology

Safety

Cooperation with TÜV Süd(German Technical Control Board)

leakage-free design according to BGR 1041):tongue and groove flanges conical threadspumps with magnetic couplings

etc

pressure surge protected design

1) BGR104: Berufsgenossenschaftliche Regel 104 „Explosionsschutz-Regeln“

Environmental issues

60 % less CO2-emissions compared to waste incineration plants per unit of electricity produced

Local or regional use of energy:less transportation

Local or regional treatment of waste:less transportation

Environment: mass flow

5000 t/a

„leakage-free“ design:no diffuse emissions

SYNTROL®: the synthesis of ecology & economy

Turning a cost function into a revenue function !by selling SYNTROL® - product oil

by generation of electricity and heat for own needs

by selling of (surplus) electricity and heat

Saving resources by substitution of fossil fuelsmore than 80% of the chemical energy of the plastics is recovered as product oil!

• Highly efficient in terms of energy conversion

ca. 95%

• High yield of product oil:

ca. 80%

• Regional treatrment in compact plants

Short distances 2 to 3 lines for the waste plastics of approx. 1‘000‘000 people

• Product oil substitutes fuel oil

well suited for combined heat and power plant
