Frequently Asked Questions
APChemi is ISO 9001:2015 certified (Certificate No. 26MEQVC25, verified by MMS Certification under IAF accreditation). Our engineering team has completed specialised ATEX and CE Marking compliance training through Lloyd's Register (LRQA), the world's leading authority in technical audit and safety certification. These credentials cover our full scope: R&D, pilot plant engineering, consultation, project development, operations, equipment manufacturing, and technology licensing for pyrolysis of plastic, tyres, and biomass.
Pyrolysis involves processing flammable materials at 400-700°C, producing combustible gases and oils. Without rigorous safety engineering, plants face explosion risks, toxic emissions, and equipment failure. In an industry where failure rates exceed 80%, certified engineering standards are the difference between a profitable operation and a costly shutdown. ATEX compliance ensures equipment is safe in explosive atmospheres, CE marking confirms EU safety standards, and ISO 9001 ensures consistent quality management across all project phases.
ATEX (ATmosphères EXplosibles) refers to EU Directive 2014/34/EU governing equipment and protective systems for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. Pyrolysis plants generate flammable gases (syngas, pyrolysis vapours) and handle combustible materials, making ATEX compliance critical. APChemi's ATEX-compliant engineering ensures proper hazardous area classification, appropriate equipment selection (Ex-rated motors, instrumentation), gas detection systems, and explosion protection measures throughout the plant.
CE (Conformité Européenne) marking indicates that pyrolysis equipment meets EU health, safety, and environmental protection requirements. For pyrolysis plants destined for European markets, CE marking covers the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), Pressure Equipment Directive (2014/68/EU), Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU), and EMC Directive (2014/30/EU). APChemi's 42 TPD plant for Clean Planet Energy (UK) was fully CE and ATEX compliant, approved by British owners' engineers STOPFORD.
Yes. APChemi maintains a comprehensive Technical Safety Dossier for authorized auditors and investors conducting formal due diligence. This includes original ISO 9001:2015 certificates, Lloyd's Register training verification, ATEX and CE compliance documentation, and UK/Kuwait project documentation demonstrating standards adherence. Engineer names are redacted for privacy, but full unredacted registers are available under NDA for qualified auditors. Contact us to request the dossier.
