Convert mixed and hard-to-recycle plastic waste into heat, power, and industrial fuels — built for Mongolia's climate, cities, and industry.
Mongolia's rapid urbanization has created a compounding crisis: landfills around Ulaanbaatar and secondary cities are overwhelmed with mixed plastic waste that conventional recycling cannot process. At the same time, extreme winters drive enormous heating demand — demand currently met by coal-heavy, costly, and emissions-intensive systems. Remote mining and industrial sites face their own energy supply constraints, importing fuel at significant cost and logistical complexity.
Mixed and multi-layer plastics accumulate in landfills with no viable recycling outlet. Contaminated streams — packaging, agricultural film, industrial wrap — are routinely buried or openly burned.
Mongolian winters regularly reach –40°C. District heating infrastructure in Ulaanbaatar and aimag centers is coal-dependent, aging, and expensive to operate. Alternative thermal sources are critically needed.
Mining, manufacturing, and remote infrastructure operators require reliable, on-site energy. Supply chains for diesel and LPG are long, expensive, and vulnerable to seasonal disruption.
Pyrotec Global deploys catalytic pyrolysis technology specifically engineered to handle the contaminated, mixed, and hard-to-recycle plastic streams that define Mongolia's real-world waste landscape. Unlike incineration or conventional pyrolysis, our catalytic process operates at lower temperatures, requires less hydrogen input, and produces high-value outputs: thermal energy, electricity, industrial syngas, and liquid fuel fractions.
The system is designed for cold-climate deployment — insulated, modular, and operable through Mongolian winters without performance degradation. Units can be co-located with landfill sites, district heating plants, or industrial facilities, minimizing feedstock transport and maximizing offtake efficiency.
Every Pyrotec Global installation is configured around its local offtake context. Mongolia's energy landscape demands three distinct output categories — and our catalytic platform delivers all three from the same feedstock stream.
Thermal output integrated into district heating networks or on-site industrial boilers. Electrical generation for grid-isolated sites, mining camps, and urban infrastructure operators. Designed for continuous cold-climate operation.
Liquid fuel fractions suitable for industrial combustion and equipment use. Syngas streams for process heat and power generation. Long-term offtake agreements with mining and manufacturing operators.
Ultra-low-hydrogen fuel fractions suitable as Sustainable Aviation Fuel precursor streams. A forward-looking output pathway for operators seeking to align with emerging aviation decarbonization requirements.
Many technology providers approach emerging markets with equipment designed for temperate climates and clean feedstock. Mongolia's reality is different: extreme cold, contaminated mixed-plastic waste streams, dispersed industrial sites, and a heating sector under structural pressure. Pyrotec Global's catalytic platform is configured from the ground up for these conditions — not retrofitted after the fact.
Ulaanbaatar generates significant volumes of plastic waste annually, the majority of which is non-recyclable through conventional channels. District heating demand peaks in winter months, creating a high-value thermal offtake market aligned with our operational output profile.
Mongolia's mining sector — copper, coal, gold, rare earths — operates facilities at distance from grid infrastructure. Diesel dependency is costly and operationally fragile. On-site catalytic pyrolysis units convert locally available waste streams into reliable fuel and power, reducing supply chain exposure.
We work with Mongolian waste management operators, municipal authorities, and industrial procurement teams as genuine partners in project development — not as a remote vendor parachuting in technology without context.
Pyrotec Global's core process applies catalytic thermal decomposition to plastic feedstocks that conventional recycling rejects: multi-layer packaging, agricultural films, contaminated industrial wrap, and blended polymer streams. The catalyst profile is selected to maximize energy yield and fuel quality while minimizing unwanted byproducts.
Solid Recovered Fuel streams from municipal or industrial pre-processing can be fed directly into the catalytic reactor, enabling integration with existing waste sorting and treatment infrastructure at Mongolian landfill and transfer station sites.
Unlike conventional hydrocracking or high-pressure pyrolysis routes, Pyrotec Global's catalytic pathway operates with significantly reduced hydrogen input. This lowers operating cost, simplifies infrastructure, and reduces the energy penalty of the conversion process.
Product streams are separated into liquid fuel fractions, syngas, and residual char. Liquid outputs are suitable for industrial combustion and fuel blending. Syngas is recovered for on-site energy generation. Char is managed in accordance with site-specific environmental requirements.
All system components are specified for operation in sub-zero environments. Insulation, heating trace, and materials selection are configured for Mongolian winter conditions — ensuring consistent throughput and uptime through the heating season when offtake demand is highest.
Pyrotec Global does not offer a single fixed product. Each deployment is scoped around the specific offtake context — the energy purchaser, the feedstock supply chain, and the infrastructure environment. The following solution categories represent the primary deployment models for Mongolia's municipal, industrial, and aviation-adjacent markets.
Thermal output from catalytic pyrolysis units integrated into district heating networks serving residential and commercial buildings in Ulaanbaatar and secondary cities. Designed to supplement or partially replace coal-fired boiler capacity, reducing fuel cost and emissions intensity for municipal heating operators.
On-site catalytic pyrolysis units co-located with mining facilities, processing plants, or manufacturing sites. Converts locally sourced plastic waste streams — including industrial packaging and operational waste — into process heat and electrical generation for site consumption.
Modular deployments for grid-isolated mining camps, exploration sites, and infrastructure projects. Eliminates or significantly reduces diesel resupply requirements by converting on-site or transported waste feedstock into fuel and electricity.
Liquid fuel fractions and syngas supplied under structured offtake agreements to industrial operators. Products are characterized for combustion specification and quality, enabling integration into existing industrial burner and generator infrastructure.
Ultra-low-hydrogen liquid fractions from the catalytic process are suitable as feedstock for Sustainable Aviation Fuel production pathways. Positioned for operators and aviation sector partners seeking to establish Mongolian supply chains for SAF precursors ahead of emerging regulatory frameworks.
Pyrotec Global is a catalytic energy technology company focused on converting plastic waste into on-site energy and industrial fuels. Our technology base is developed and operated from Hong Kong, with primary market focus on Mongolia and the broader Central and Northeast Asian industrial energy market.
The company was founded by Isaac Ma, whose work centers on applying catalytic pyrolysis at commercial scale in markets where the combination of plastic waste volumes, energy demand, and infrastructure constraints creates the strongest case for this technology. Mongolia represents exactly that alignment: a country with rising plastic waste, extreme heating requirements, an energy-intensive industrial sector, and limited access to conventional fuel supply chains.
Pyrotec Global operates as a technology and project development partner — working with Mongolian waste operators, municipal authorities, and industrial procurement teams to scope, engineer, and deploy catalytic pyrolysis systems calibrated for local conditions. We do not offer off-the-shelf equipment. We structure projects around real offtake and real feedstock.
