1. Waste Animal & Vegetable Oil → Biodiesel (DYD One-Step Process)

Lybonic’s flagship DYD One-Step technology directly converts waste cooking oil, grease, and food-processing fats into high-purity biodiesel (BD100) without the traditional two-step acid–alkali process.

Advantages:

• Combines esterification and transesterification in a single reaction vessel at 75–85°C under normal pressure.
• Reduces production time by 50% and methanol use by 30%.
• Conversion yield up to 95% for gutter oil and 85% for standard waste oils.
• Certified to meet ASTM D6751 and EN14214 standards.

Applications: IMO-compliant ship fuel, vehicle diesel blend (B20–B100), sustainable aviation fuel base.

2. Waste Engine Oil → B30 Biofuel

Transforms discarded lubricants and engine oil into B30-grade transportation fuel through catalytic cracking and molecular distillation.

Key Features:

• Produces regenerated diesel with cetane number ≈40; blended with 30% biodiesel to reach B30 fuel standard.
• Reduces hazardous waste incineration and recovers valuable hydrocarbons.
• Enables circular reuse of automotive and industrial oils.

Environmental Impact: 60–70% reduction in lifecycle CO₂ emissions vs. conventional diesel.

3. Waste Plastics → Pyrolysis Oil

Lybonic’s Plastic-to-Oil Recycling System co-processes waste plastics with used oil under high temperature using a patented Plastic Cracking Catalyst.

Highlights:

• Produces “Plastic Crude Oil” and “Cracked Gas,” achieving over 70% oil yield.
• The recovered oil can be refined into gasoline, diesel, and boiler fuels.
• Greatly reduces landfill waste and crude oil dependency.

Output: Light fuel oil and LPG byproducts for power generation.

4. Oil Sludge Removal & Recovery

Lybonic’s Oil Sludge Separation Agent efficiently removes heavy oil residues from ship tanks, storage tanks, and refinery sludge pits.

Performance:

• Removes crude, bunker, and waste engine oil residues that conventional detergents cannot.
• Tested in Daqing Oilfield, achieving complete sludge separation and oil recovery.
• Enables recycling of ship bilge sludge into regenerated 180 fuel oil or crude oil.

Benefits: Saves water, reduces cleaning costs, and supports port-level circular operations.

5. Waste Foam Plastics (PS) → Marine Anti-Corrosion Coating

Lybonic engineers developed PS Marine Anti-Corrosion Paint using recycled polystyrene foam waste.

Applications:

• Protective coating for ships, buoys, docks, and coastal steel structures.
• Offers superior saltwater resistance and costs one-third less than conventional coatings.
• Represents a new category of value-added upcycled polymer material.

6. Plant Asphalt → B24 Biofuel

Plant asphalt, a carbonized residue from vegetable oil processing, can be transformed into B24-grade marine biofuel using the third-generation DYD catalyst.

Features:

• Converts >70% of plant asphalt into biofuel.
• Stable feedstock from biodiesel and vitamin-E industries (over 500,000 tons annually).
• Expands bioenergy feedstock diversity, ensuring price stability and scalability.

Usage: Deep-sea ship fuel meeting IMO 2020 sulfur standards.

7. Waste Tires → Pyrolytic Fuel & Carbon Black

Utilizing controlled pyrolysis, waste tires are decomposed into liquid fuel, pyrolysis gas, and carbon black.

Outputs:

• Fuel oil for industrial boilers or marine use.
• Recovered carbon black reused in rubber production.

Impact: Diverts non-degradable rubber waste from landfills and reduces fossil fuel use.
