In the increasingly stringent environmental regulatory landscape of Southeast Asia, how to strike a balance between complying with hazardous waste management regulations and achieving economic benefits? In October 2025, Beston Group and our client in Southeast Asia achieved this. After a 730-day journey, 3 sets of BLJ-16 pyrolysis plants were successfully commissioned, providing a perfect answer to the regional environmental challenge.
Challenge: Pressure Under Strict Environmental Regulations
The client is a long-time practitioner in the local waste management industry. However, with the increasing demand for chemical oil sludge and medical plastic waste treatment, traditional incineration or landfill solutions are facing unprecedented pressure:
Local environmental protection departments have implemented extremely strict exhaust emission standards. They also monitor corporate emissions in real time, 24 hours a day, and transmit the data directly to the government’s backend system. This means that any emission fluctuation exceeding the limits could result in hefty compliance penalties. The client understood they need more than just a machine; they need a closed-loop compliance solution that could withstand continuous environmental scrutiny.
Solution: Addressing Hazardous Waste Pain Points
To address the client’s specific needs for treating chemical sludge and medical plastic waste, the Beston Group engineering team custom-designed the BLJ-16 pyrolysis system.
- ⭐Exhaust Gas Treatment: To meet the most stringent regulations, the system was equipped with top-of-the-line components. The system includes cooling and dust removal, desulfurization and denitrification, electrostatic precipitation, and activated carbon adsorption. This combination ensures that the final exhaust gas emissions are below the emission limits.
- Residue Discharge System: 3 water-cooled screw extractors can cool the residue to a safe temperature in a sealed environment, thereby protecting the operating environment and preventing secondary dust pollution.
Delivery: 730 Days of Long-Term Support
From the order placement to the receipt of the acceptance report, the delivery cycle of this project lasted two years (October 20, 2023 to October 19, 2025). During this period, our engineers flew to Southeast Asia twice. They were not only providing technical guidance but also acting as a source of reassurance for the client on-site.
- Phase 1: Assisting with infrastructure construction and equipment installation.
- Phase 2: Detailed on-site debugging and operational training.
The engineers actively collected feedback from the client under different operating conditions and provided on-site solutions. They provided support until the client’s technical team could independently operate the pyrolysis plant. Finally, the client formally signed the acceptance form and provided positive feedback.
Results: A “Win-win” for Both Economy and Environment
Through the application of chemical oil sludge and medical plastic pyrolysis machines, the previously problematic hazardous waste underwent a complete transformation:
- Energy Output: The extracted pyrolysis oil can not only be used as an energy source for the client’s own industrial park, but the surplus can also be sold externally, generating direct economic benefits.
- Compliance and Waste Reduction: The industrial residue after pyrolysis showed a significant reduction in petroleum hydrocarbon and polymer content, meeting local standards for compliant landfill disposal.
- Cost Avoidance: The client not only received income from hazardous waste treatment fees but also significantly reduced the operating costs of the park through fuel substitution. More importantly, they avoided potential environmental administrative penalties.
In the End
The successful delivery of the 3 BLJ-16 pyrolysis plant is not only a technological triumph, but also a reflection of our “customer-first” service philosophy. In Southeast Asia, a land full of opportunities and challenges, our 730 days of persistent effort have proven that sustainable recycling is not only a lucrative business, but also a responsibility to contribute to a greener future. Take action! Beston Group invites environmental pioneers worldwide to join the pyrolysis recycling industry.
