Abstract: Described is a system for producing primarily diesel with some heavy fuel oil from plastic feedstock. The feedstock is received into a pyrolizer. There are two zones in the pyrolizer—one where the temperature is elevated during conveyance, and a second where the temperature is maintained. A distillation vessel receives fuel oils from the pyrolizer and agitates the oils at high temperature. A hydrogenation vessel then mixes the fuel liquid with H2 at a high pressure while recirculating to and from an expansion vessel to create converted fuel oil. A diesel distillation tank receives the converted fuel oil and creates diesel gas, which is then condensed to form a usable diesel product. Any remaining fuel oil is sent the heavy fuel oil tank.
