TIRE PYROLYSIS
Our tire pyrolysis technology is designed for rapidly achieving a circular value chain in many industries.
About Tire Pyrolysis
Pressure to Recycle Waste
Did you know tires that end up in landfills do not decompose? There are more than 4 billion tires stockpiled worldwide, and 1.84 billion ELTs will be generated annually. As demand is steadily rising, the world needs an alternative to renewing tires into environmentally friendly products.
Also, around 25-50% of tires are burned, which is more toxic to the environment than burning coal, releasing a massive amount of harmful emissions in the atmosphere.
Revolve Carbon Materials has a solution that give ELTs a new purpose.
Product Development Drives Choice of Technology
Recent advancements in tire pyrolysis technology have made it possible to economically transform tire waste into valuable fuels and raw materials. Their properties surpass those of their virgin counterparts.
Revolve Carbon Materials’ goal is to use the tire pyrolysis process to reduce the world’s waste for a more sustainable future.
Why Pyrolysis?
The Promise of Re-Channeling of Tire Waste
End-of-Life Tires are full of valuable raw materials, the great majority of which is currently either used as fuel or going to waste, piling up in landfills. Only pyrolysis technologies hold the promise of massively re-channeling these materials to sophisticated industrial uses.
These new tried-and-proven technologies can finally be scaled to reverse the trend of rising landfills, depletion of resources and rising greenhouse gas emissions. Tire Pyrolysis is an essential part of how we rethink the global problem of waste management.
Pyrolysis Process
The process begins with shredding End-of-Life Tires to granulate the rubber. The pyrolysis process uses pressure and heat in the absence of oxygen to break down the granules into recycled carbon black, oils, and synthetic gas to power the process. For the circular economy, all the byproducts will be renewable.
Pyrolysis Products
Recovered Carbon Black
We contribute to the industrial value chain by producing recovered Carbon Black (rCB). Demand has risen and it is environmentally friendly to produce.
The market is expected to grow in forecast period 2020-2025 at a compound annual growth rate of 4.4% to attain a volume of 18 Million Metric tons. rCB has many useful properties such as filler in tires, paints, plastics, coatings, ink production and many others.
(TPO) Oil
Tire Pyrolysis Oil (TPO) is a valuable, synthetic oil manufactured as a substitute for petroleum that can reduce carbon emissions by 90%. TPO is a great alternative to fossil fuels but is is also used in the production of new high-tech products. The oil is therefore recycled and repurposed instead of becoming a waste product. Manufacturers can come a long way in meeting their CSGs by switching to TPO as an alternative raw material.
