Pyrolysis oil
Pyrolysis oil offers significant potential as a renewable, waste derived resource for the oil and energy industry. GEA centrifuges ensure reliable downstream use and deliver consistent, stable oil quality.
Benefits of our centrifuges
- Reliable removal of solids and free water for stable oil quality
- Designed for variable feedstock and process conditions
- Nitrogen‑purged operation for safe handling of low‑flash‑point oils
- Compact, skid‑mounted systems for easy integration
- High availability through continuous, automated operation
- Suitable for hazardous areas (ATEX / IECEx)
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.

Centrífuga do decantador
O uso do Decanter se faz necessário assim que o teor de sólidos em suspensão a ser processado for particularmente alto. Estas máquinas proporcionam os benefícios de alta eficiência de clarificação e desidratação máxima assim como a separação dos líquidos com a remoção simultânea dos sólidos. Os principais requisitos com relação a isso incluem uma...
Separador centrífugo
Os separadores da GEA são projetados para aplicações baseadas em líquido. A força centrífuga é usada para separação de suspensões consistindo em duas ou mais fases de diferentes densidades, isto é, podem ser usadas para separação de líquido-líquido, de líquido-líquido-sólido ou líquido-sólido. Eles são igualmente eficientes na separação de mistur...
