With over 1 billion waste tires generated globally each year, achieving efficient and eco-friendly disposal has become central to resource recycling. Tire pyrolysis systems convert waste tires into high-value products—pyrolysis oil, recovered carbon black, steel wire, and fuel gas—through high-temperature, oxygen-free processes, creating a “resource-product-renewed resource” loop.
I. Pyrolysis Technology: Revolutionizing Production Efficiency
Recent breakthroughs in continuous pyrolysis offer three core advantages:
1. Production Revolution: Fully automated, sealed systems enable 24/7 operation without cooling downtime. For example, Niutech’s single production line processes tens of thousands of tons annually, streamlining feeding, pyrolysis, and discharging.
2. Smart Control: PLC systems monitor temperature, pressure, and material status in real time. This ensures precise control, reduces manual intervention, prevents hazards, and maintains operational continuity.
3. Process Innovation: Anti-coking reactor design extends equipment life. Triple heat recovery via “internal-external circulation” boosts pyrolysis rates through uniform heating.
II. Environmental Benefits: Dual Pathways for Pollution Control & Resource Recovery
Pyrolysis tackles tire pollution at both source and endpoint:
1. Pollution Prevention:
Unlike landfilling/incineration (which release dust/dioxins), pyrolysis occurs in sealed, oxygen-free reactors, blocking toxic emissions.
Niutech’s flue gas purification systems (desulfurization/denitrification) meet strict EU standards.
2.>99% Conversion Rate: Near-zero solid residue enables “zero-pollution” operation.
3. Resource Recovery: Outputs—pyrolysis oil, rCB, steel wire, and fuel gas—serve as high-value resources.
III. High-Value Applications of Pyrolysis Products
Products advance from industrial materials to premium uses:
1. Pyrolysis Oil:
Fuel: Powers industrial boilers; hydro-refined into diesel components.
Chemical Feedstock: Niutech’s ISCC-certified oil qualifies as EU-sustainable chemical raw material.
2.rCB: Green Return to Tire Manufacturing:
Traditional rCB has low surface activity, limiting use to low-end rubber.
Niutech’s “rCB Upgrading Tech” produces commercial-grade rCB for tire treads, conveyor belts, and seals.
3. Steel Wire & Fuel Gas:
Steel wires recycle into steelmaking; fuel gas powers the system, cutting external energy needs.
As a global leader in continuous pyrolysis, Niutech drives tire circular economy through tech exports, standards, and landmark projects. Its equipment operates in 30+ countries (e.g., Germany, Brazil, India), backed by 110+ patents. ISCC EU/PLUS certification allows pyrolysis oil and rCB to enter EU markets, marking a milestone in China’s green tech recognition.
From technical edges and eco-benefits to high-value applications and global practice, continuous tire pyrolysis is key to resolving “black pollution.” With Niutech and other Chinese firms advancing tech exports and standards, their “waste-to-wealth” model offers global solutions for resource security and low-carbon transition.
