Distillation Equipment Project in Malaysia
In February 2026, a waste-tire recycling client based in Johor, Malaysia began expanding from basic tire collection into a higher-value recovery model.
Introduction
In February 2026, a waste-tire recycling client based in Johor, Malaysia began expanding from basic tire collection into a higher-value recovery model. The company was looking for a refining equipment solution that could handle mixed passenger and truck tires, improve oil quality, and produce a more marketable fuel product for industrial buyers. Their main goals were to increase processing capacity, reduce disposal pressure, and build a stable revenue stream from tire-derived fuel and recovered materials.
After reviewing feedstock conditions, local utility costs, and the client’s production goals, the project was designed as a compact but fully integrated waste tire pyrolysis and refining line. The system was planned for continuous operation with stable output, strong energy efficiency, and enough automation to reduce labor intensity while improving safety and consistency.





Professional Solution Tailored for the Client
To meet the client’s operating needs in Malaysia, the proposed solution centered on a complete tire pyrolysis refining system with feed preparation, thermal cracking, condensation, oil polishing, gas recycling, and residue recovery. Because the client’s feedstock included tires with different sizes, steel content, and moisture levels, the front-end handling section was configured with a robust shredding and feeding setup to ensure smooth and stable reactor loading. This reduced the risk of uneven heating and improved overall oil yield.
The core refining line was engineered with precise temperature control and a multistage condensation unit so the client could convert raw pyrolysis vapors into cleaner fuel oil with better storage stability and improved combustion performance. A dedicated oil refining module was added to remove fine impurities and upgrade the final product for industrial use. In parallel, recovered steel wire and carbon black residue were collected separately to create additional revenue streams.
The project also emphasized operational practicality. Since the plant would run in a tropical climate and serve a growing feedstock volume, the equipment layout was optimized for ventilation, maintenance access, and corrosion resistance. The control system used a PLC-based interface with automated monitoring of temperature, pressure, and discharge conditions, helping operators maintain consistent output with minimal manual intervention. Training, commissioning support, and spare-parts planning were included to reduce downtime during the first production cycle.
Overall, the solution was tailored not just to process waste tires, but to help the client build a more efficient and commercially reliable recycling business.

After installation and commissioning, the project delivered stable commercial performance with the following annualized results:
- Annual waste tire processing capacity: 12,000 metric tons
- Average pyrolysis oil yield: 44%
- Annual fuel output: 4,800 metric tons
A simple financial evaluation is shown below:
- Total project investment cost: USD 2,400,000
- Annual revenue:
- Fuel sales: 4,800 tons × USD 650/ton = USD 3,120,000
- Recovered carbon black and steel sales = USD 540,000
- Total annual revenue = USD 3,660,000
Assuming annual operating expenses of USD 2,200,000, the estimated annual net profit is:
- Net profit = USD 3,660,000 – USD 2,200,000 = USD 1,460,000
ROI calculation:
- ROI = (Net Profit ÷ Investment Cost) × 100
- ROI = (1,460,000 ÷ 2,400,000) × 100 = 60.8%
This result indicated that the project was financially attractive, with strong production efficiency and a solid return profile for the client.
