The yield of oil in pyrolysis of tires varies significantly depending on several factors.
For large car tires, truck tires, and OTR tires, the oil yield is approximately 45%-52%.
Smaller tires, such as those used in cars, motorcycles, and bicycles, yield about 35%-40% oil.
Other rubber materials, like rubber cable sheaths, rubber soles, and various rubber sheets or carpets, yield slightly less oil, typically around 30%-35%.
The variation in oil yield is primarily due to the composition and size of the tires.
Larger tires generally have a higher rubber content and thus yield more oil during pyrolysis.
The process of pyrolysis involves the thermal decomposition of the tires in the absence of oxygen.
This process breaks down the rubber and other components into various by-products, including oil, carbon black, steel, and gas.
The oil produced from tire pyrolysis is a valuable resource with a high calorific value, similar to that of coal and crude oil.
This oil can be directly used as fuel or further refined to increase its value.
The process is not only economically beneficial but also environmentally friendly.
It provides a sustainable method for managing waste tires, which are a significant environmental concern due to their non-biodegradable nature.
In summary, the yield of oil from tire pyrolysis is quite substantial.
It offers a viable solution for waste tire management while also producing a useful product that can be utilized as a fuel source or further processed for higher value applications.
