  • Patent number: 7691344
    Abstract: An oil reconversion devices 1a and 1b for waste plastics which thermally crack a waste plastic Ro by heating it and converts a generated cracker gas Gr into oil by cooling it, equipped with a thermal cracking bath 2 which has a bath main body 4 placed inside a coil 3 . . . , induction-heats the bath main body 4 by feeding a high-frequency current through the coil 3 . . . , and thermally cracks at least a molten plastic Rd obtained from the waste plastic Ro to generate the cracker gas Gr, an injection port 5 through which the waste plastic Ro is injected, a feeder 6 which supplies the waste plastic Ro injected through this injection port 5 to the thermal cracking bath 2 via a forced or direct feeding means Ua or Ub without a bath, and an oil conversion processor 7 which cools and converts the cracker gas Gr generated by the thermal cracking bath 2 into oil.

  • Patent number: 5951826
    Abstract: A recycling apparatus for obtaining oil from waste plastic by thermal decomposition has a thermal decomposition tank 2 comprising a tank proper 3. The inside of the tank proper 3 is divided by a partition 7 into a thermal decomposition chamber at its front and a melting chamber at its rear, with a communicating space to connect the thermal decomposition and melting chambers and provided below the partition. Heating pipes are disposed in the tank proper so that hot air travels from the thermal decomposition chamber through the communicating spaces to the melting chamber. This arrangement permits keeping the thermal decomposition chamber, communicating spaces and melting chamber at temperatures suited for thermal decomposition and melting, thereby realizing design simplification and size reduction, permitting substantial cost savings and ease of maintenance, and increasing productivity and economy.

  • Patent number: 5947721
    Abstract: A recycling apparatus for obtaining oil from waste plastic by thermal decomposition having a tank proper with a hopper to charge the waste plastic and multiple heating pipes disposed above one another which communicate with one another in the tank proper. The upper heating pipe is connected to a hot-air generator and the lower heating pipe to a flue duct leading to the outside atmosphere, thus dividing the tank proper into an upper thermal decomposition zone and a lower melting zone. As such, the recycling apparatus accomplishes the melting and thermal decomposition of the waste plastic in one tank. The recycling apparatus is simple and compact, provides substantial cost savings and ease of maintenance, and increases productivity and economy.
