Tire pyrolysis plants convert waste tires into valuable resources.
These plants produce four main products: fuel oil, uncondensable gas, carbon black, and steel wire.
Each product has different uses and market values, contributing to the profitability of the pyrolysis process.
What are the Products of a Tire Pyrolysis Plant? (4 Key Outputs Explained)
1. Pyrolysis Oil
Pyrolysis oil is a significant output of the tire pyrolysis process.
Approximately 300kg of oil is produced from a ton of tires.
The oil can be used directly as fuel in various industries such as steel factories, boiler heating, heavy oil generators, and cement factories.
It also has the potential to be refined further into diesel, which can be used in diesel generators, for heating, or in heavy machinery.
2. Carbon Black
About 380kg of carbon black is produced from a ton of tires.
This material is versatile and can be processed in different ways.
It can be formed into carbon bricks using briquetting equipment for burning, or it can be refined into a powder form to manufacture new tires, shoe soles, or paint.
The production of carbon black from waste tires is an effective way to recycle and reuse a material that would otherwise be discarded.
3. Steel Wire
Approximately 170kg of steel wire is recovered from a ton of tires.
This steel wire can be either remelted and reused in various industries or sold directly as scrap metal.
The recovery of steel from waste tires not only reduces the need for new raw materials but also provides a cost-effective solution for steel production.
4. Gas
Around 150kg of gas, with about 40% methane content, is produced from a ton of tires.
This gas is a valuable by-product that can be used for energy production, particularly in the form of syngas (a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide) when the pyrolysis temperature exceeds 700°C.
The gas can be utilized on-site to power the pyrolysis process or sold as a separate product.
The tire pyrolysis process is efficient and environmentally friendly, converting waste tires into valuable resources.
The modular nature of the pyrolysis systems allows for scalability and customization according to the needs of the customer, further enhancing the economic viability of the process.
The products derived from tire pyrolysis have a robust market, contributing to the overall benefits of this sustainable technology.
