CATALYTIC DEPOLYMERIZATION
Power Generation from Plastic Waste, Tires and Waste Oils
Company Profile
The company GB Consulting s.r.o. delivers unique technologies introducing the concept of new and high standard for the secondary raw material utilization in the field of renewable energy, using plastic waste, used tires and all types of waste polymers as the raw material input.
The company GB Consulting supplies low-temperature depolymerization technologies developed by the company Plasma Energy (P) Ltd. The final product of the depolymerization technology, delivered by the company GB Pyrolysis Europe, is the production of the so-called green synthetic (fuel) oil Poly-fuel, carbon black Poly-carbon and synthetic gas Poly-gas. Moreover, tire treatment technology facilitates the recovery of steel.
GB Consulting with the support of RCFG*, constituting the part of the company Plasma Energy (P) Ltd., delivers the technol-ogy for the synthetic oil processing, the outcome of which is patented fuel Polyfuel , i.e. a hydrocarbon liquid, composed of petrol, kerosene and diesel. Depolymerization technology is energetically self-sufficient and for its operation uses the outlet raw materials. On the other hand, the technology can generate electrical power and heat by the cogeneration (a combined generation of heat and electricity) and can exploit the waste polymers ecologically and in a way providing the benefit in the form of the power generation. Otherwise, the disposal of the waste polymers would be rather demanding, possibly harming and polluting the environment. In consequence of global warming and large-scale utilization of all types of plastics, rubbers and used oils the waste recycling and its conversion into another usable raw material is a very important step for the future of not only the Czech Republic, but the whole planet. Depolymerization tech-nologies, delivered by GB Consulting, convert the polymer into fine raw material applying the process, which is highly effective and environmentally friendly (completely ecological process) GB Consulting introduces the unique technology, which can dramatically change the polymer waste manage-ment, currently prevailingly consisting of the pure and simple waste storage. However, the polymer waste storage is nothing else than postponing the problem with the disposal to future generations. GB Consulting launches the equipment onto the European market, which can tremendously help the environment.
GB Consulting put together a team of experienced and qualified experts in recycling, power engineering, consultancy and marketing taking a considerable effort to produce the energy from the wastes. Our professionals and technology suppliers are globally recognized and operate in different countries all over the world.
Moreover, we are also active in the field of technological and waste heat exploitation and its technological conversion into the electrical power or chill.

SYNTHETIC OIL
The technology does not burn the polymer waste; instead, the waste is decomposed into the usable final products such as synthetic oil, synthetic gas and carbon black. Low-temperature catalytic depolymerization of plastics, oils and tires offers the following benefits:
generates quality fuel with low emissions facilitates to solve the issue of the soil pollution with plastic, oils and tires recovers energy from the waste
Depolymerization is the best available alternative for the waste oil and polymer management compared to the incineration or dumping in the refuse storage area. The incineration means a direct waste oxidation, leading to the loss of valuable energy from the polymer waste. The polymer waste dumping in the refuse storage area results in the soil pollution. Low-temperature catalytic depolymerization of the polymer waste helps us to recover a valuable energy from the waste in the form of the synthetic oil, synthetic gas and carbon black.
