Tire pyrolysis refers to the process of using high temperature to induce thermal chemical reactions of organic substances in waste tires under specific anaerobic or hypoxic conditions, resulting in the decomposition and conversion of high molecular compounds in tires into low molecular substances. Its essence is to break the chemical bonds of large molecules such as rubber in tires through heating, causing them to break down into small molecule substances. So what are the specific products of tire pyrolysis? What are the applications of these products? Let's take a look together below.1. Refining tire oil:It is the substance that produces the most amount of refined tire oil. Engineering tires, truck tires, etc. can produce 45% -50% refined tire oil, while small car tires, motorcycle tires, etc. can produce 35% -40% refined tire oil. It has a high calorific value, generally around 10,300 kcal, and can be used as an alternative fuel for boiler, steel plants, etc. It can also be refined to produce non-standard
Theoretically, the oil yield of waste tire pyrolysis can reach 45% - 50%, that is, about 450 to 500 kilograms of tire oil can be refined from one ton of waste tires. However, in the actual production process, the oil yield often decreases, mainly affected by the following factors. 1.Tire typesTires of different types vary in material, structure and oil content. For example, large engineering tires, truck tires and steel cord tires generally have a relatively high oil yield due to their high manufacturing specifications and good quality. These tires have a high rubber content and better rubber quality, so they can produce more fuel during the pyrolysis process. In contrast, ordinary car tires, motorcycle tires and bicycle tires have a lower oil yield because they are used with lower intensity and the specification requirements during manufacturing are not as strict as those of steel cord tires. In addition, the degree of tire wear also affects the oil content and thus the oil yield.2.Equipment and
