Plastic to Fuel Pyrolysis Reactor
a Trash to Diesel Recycling Device
The PyrolOil MK I
Turn Trash into Treasure: Sustainable Diesel for a Self-Sufficient Life!
One of the last things to properly wrap up self sufficient living is the issue with fuel like diesel and gasoline.
I have been doing a lot of research and prototype work on this front since 2019, it would be fair to say significant effort has been invested into it.
The solution to that combines nicely with another issue many around the globe face: what to do with all the plastic trash ?
The answer to this is a Plastic to Fuel Pyrolysis Reactor !
This Device uses heat to turn plastic waste into pyrolysis crude oil, diesel, gasoline and flammable gases.
It is time to move beyond the “proof of concept” and build proper sized prototypes to iron out the quirks and make an easy to use, robust, portable device that anyone can run in their homestead.

Fuel Your Freedom: Generate Diesel Right at Home!
This device enables the production of fuel in form of crude oil,
diesel and gasoline on your own homestead reducing your waste amount and helping the environment in so many ways.
Increase your and your families energy independence and self sufficiency !
With things getting funny all around the globe and specially in the middle east the dependency on fuel/diesel/gasoline is becoming an ever more present subject.
With this device you are the 1% of the 1%, someone who can produce his own diesel and gasoline.
A simple to use device that is easily portable and built out of industrial parts that are internationally available.
The device is rugged and robust in design and function. Allows for easy maintenance yet still is save for the user and the environment.
It supports reasonable big batch sizes of up to around 200 litres input material.
Technical plans, progress, prototype runs and such will be documented and made public for people to experiment or research further.
As time is available this winter for the last stage prototyping I am aiming to approach the final version of the plastic to fuel pyrolysis reactor in early summer 2025.
Shipping for founders around September 2025.
Commercial availability (for non founders ) 2nd quarter of 2026.
How to buy one ?
For this purpose I decided to run a crowdfunding campaign.
There will only be a limited numbers of PyrolOil MK I Reactors available, build and sold.
Ten ( 10 ) Plastic to Fuel Pyrolysis Reactors PyrolOil MK I Installations will be available.
You can purchase them in our webshop as long as available.
The commercially sold Reactors that will be available at a later date will be around 35-45% more in price.
The founding support is not a donation but is a pre-order for the actual physical device.

How can you be sure ?!?
I own a production workshop and the tools for the production so there is no hidden or uncalculated costs.
After receiving the money on the bank account you will receive a legally binding sale contract and confirmation of payment in written form.
The original will be send to you per post, not online.
Make sure there is a viable post address available !
Legal
As we operate from Germany the sale contract is in German language.
The Product is not a mass produced item ( yet ) but a individually ordered and produced piece of craftsmanship, therefore a purchase / buy is non refundable.
The Product may require partial assembly, this can be done with basic common tools and without special skills required.
The Product you receive is classified as ART, you will receive a art installation !
Here is why…
I can legally not provide the certificates and regulatory requirements for a technical device that :
- Could be used with potentially toxic waste ( plastic )
- Has pressure build up (minimal, but still )
- Will possibly be exposed to different types of open flames (wood, gas, coal )
- Possibly runs Toxic gases
- Possibly runs Corrosive gases
- Runs Flammable/Explosive gases
- Burns flammable gases
- Produces a flammable fluid
- Produces a environmental dangerous fluid
- Produces a carcinogenic fluid
- Produces a fluid that would be taxable and regulated
.
The Product you receive is a technically functional art installation. Follow your local law and make sure you follow all the legal regulations if you where to use it as anything but an art installation. For above mentioned legal reasons i can not guarantee that the Product, which is an art installation, can perform its theoretical technical abilities within regulations.
The Product does not contain any sort of items that are not free to trade internationally
FAQ
Q: Roughly how much plastic (lbs) does it take to make a gallon of diesel?
A: “Efficiency : 1kg plastic waste = 650-800ml Pyrolysis Crude Oil ” .
Pyrolysis Crude Oil <> Diesel . The composition and the efficiency of which the crude oil is converted to diesel in a second step is something else. The 1st outcoming product is Pyrolysis Crude Oil which is only partially diesel, but also contains normal gasoline, heavy oils and processing trash.
I cant make any claims of the composition efficiency because it depends highly on the input material and other factors like the actual temperature used during the process as well as the distillation/refining progress to separate the diesel.
