Used tires are one of the most challenging types of waste due to their durability and slow decomposition. Today, pyrolysis technology offers an effective solution to transform waste tires into valuable resources.
Tire pyrolysis is a thermal process conducted in the absence of oxygen at temperatures around 400–600°C. This process breaks down the polymer structure of rubber, converting it into useful products such as fuel oil, recovered carbon black (rCB), syngas, and recyclable steel.
One of the key advantages of rubber pyrolysis is its ability to reduce waste, minimize environmental pollution from burning or landfilling, and create added value from waste materials. It also supports the concept of a circular economy, which is gaining global attention.
In the future, tire pyrolysis is expected to grow significantly, driven by improvements in product quality and industrial-scale production. As a result, waste tires are no longer just waste—but a valuable source of energy and business opportunities.
