Why Tyre Pyrolysis Plants Are Helpful
A tyre pyrolysis plant uses an industrial process that converts used tyres into liquid fuel, including oils and gases. The two main forms of processes utilized: direct and indirect. In a direct process, the rubber is heated in a oxygen-free environment at 300 to 600 °C for several hours, causing the hydrocarbon chains inside the tyre to interrupt down into smaller pieces. A byproduct of this ...
