Pyrolysis Reactor Types: Understanding Batch vs. Continuous Modes
At the heart of every pyrolysis system—whether processing biomass, plastic, or tires—lies the reactor’s operating mode. Batch and continuous reactors share the same foundational goal: breaking down organic materials via high heat in an oxygen-limited environment. Yet their principles of operation differ drastically, shaping everything from efficiency to scalability. Understanding these core mechanisms is key to choosing the right technology for your waste-to-value goals. Let’s dive into how each mode works at a fundamental level.

Oil Sludge Pyrolysis: Driving Sustainable Change in the Petroleum Industry
The petroleum industry has long been the backbone of global energy supply, but it also faces pressing challenges related to waste management and environmental sustainability. One of the most significant issues is the generation of oil sludge—a hazardous byproduct containing oil, water, and solids. Improper disposal of oil sludge can contaminate soil, groundwater, and air, posing severe risks to both ecosystems and human health.

The CO2 Capture and Storage Potential in the Biochar Pyrolysis Process
Biochar, a carbon-rich material produced through the pyrolysis of organic biomass, has recently gained attention as a powerful tool in both climate change mitigation and soil improvement. While biochar is often discussed in terms of its agricultural benefits, one of its most promising environmental attributes lies in its ability to capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2). This blog post explores the potential of biochar in capturing CO2 during its production process and its long-term potential for carbon sequestration.

The Pyrolysis Applicability of Common Oil Sludge Types
Oil sludge is one of the most persistent forms of industrial waste generated during the exploration, production, transportation, and refining of petroleum. It is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, water, heavy metals, and solid particles. Improper disposal of oil sludge not only contaminates soil and water resources but also releases harmful gases during decomposition.

Difference Between Ordinary Pyrolysis Oil and ISCC Certified Pyrolysis Oil
In recent years, the growing concern for sustainability and environmental impact has driven significant advancements in the waste-to-energy sector. One of the most promising technologies in this space is pyrolysis, which involves converting waste materials into useful products like oils, gases, and solid residues through thermal decomposition in the absence of oxygen. Among the products generated, pyrolysis oil stands out as a valuable liquid fuel. However, not all pyrolysis oils are created equal. There is a clear distinction between regular pyrolysis oil and pyrolysis oil that has earned ISCC (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification). Let’s explore these differences.

Why Pyrolysis Needs to Take Place in an Anaerobic Environment
Pyrolysis, a thermal decomposition process of organic materials in the absence of oxygen, has gained considerable attention in various fields such as waste management, energy production, and biofuel generation. Unlike combustion, which requires oxygen to burn materials, pyrolysis occurs in an oxygen-free environment, and this condition plays a critical role in the efficiency and outcome of the process. In this article, we will explore why pyrolysis must take place in an anaerobic (oxygen-free) environment and what happens when this condition is not met.
