Pyrolysis oil - From waste to valuable feedstock
Pyrolysis oil is produced by thermally converting organic materials in an oxygen‑free environment. Typical feedstocks include:
- Plastic waste
- End‑of‑life tires
- Biomass such as wood and agricultural residues
- Selected municipal or industrial waste streams
By converting waste into liquid hydrocarbons, pyrolysis supports circular‑economy concepts and helps reduce reliance on fossil resources. At the same time, raw pyrolysis oil is complex and often unstable, making appropriate treatment a critical step before further use.
The key to reliable operation
Untreated pyrolysis oil can be difficult to handle, store and further process.
Fine solids and free water reduce oil stability, while reactive components may accelerate equipment wear and corrosion.
Effective mechanical separation is essential to:
- Reduce solids and water for stable oil quality
- Prevent corrosion and equipment wear
- Enable safe storage and transport
- Prepare oil for further upgrading
Flexible separation for every challenge
GEA applies proven centrifugal separation technology to address the specific challenges associated with pyrolysis oil treatment. Our solutions are engineered to handle variable feedstock compositions while delivering a stable, process‑ready oil quality for downstream use.
GEA designs flexible mechanical separation concepts tailored to solids load, water content, oil properties and target specifications.
Efficient pyrolysis oil upgrading with GEA centrifuges for consistent, process-ready quality.
Flexible mechanical separation concepts
Primary solids removal
For oils with elevated solids content, an upstream decanter centrifuge can be used to remove coarse particles and stabilize the overall process.Oil polishing with disk stack centrifuges
High‑speed disk stack centrifuges remove remaining fine solids and free water, resulting in improved oil quality and process stability.Modular system design
Single‑stage or multi‑stage configurations allow adaption to varying feed qualities and performance requirements.Your partner for safe, efficient and sustainable pyrolysis oil treatment

Dekanterzentrifugen
Sobald der Feststoffgehalt in der zu verarbeitenden Suspension besonders hoch ist, schlägt die Stunde der Dekanter. Sie sorgen für hohe Klärleistung und höchstmögliche Entwässerung oder trennen zwei Flüssigkeiten bei gleichzeitiger Abscheidung der Feststoffe. Wesentliche Voraussetzungen hierfür sind u.a. eine hohe Trommeldrehzahl, ein leistungsst...
Zentrifugalseparatoren
GEA Separatoren werden zur Klärung von Flüssigkeiten und Trennung von Flüssigkeitsgemischen eingesetzt. Unter Ausnutzung der Zentrifugalkraft trennen sie Suspensionen, die aus zwei oder mehr Phasen mit unterschiedlicher Dichte bestehen. Sie können für eine flüssig-flüssig, flüssig-flüssig-fest bzw. für eine flüssig-feste Abscheidung genutzt werde...
