Batch model pyrolysis plant
Typical running process and production time to process 10-15 tons of used tires.
RUNNING PROCESS
Feeding Of Used Tires (2.5 Hours)
Using hydraulic feeder to load used tires into pyrolysis reactor. It can load whole tires without shredding. The pyrolysis reactor rotates in feeding direction. Keeps feeding until the reactor is fully loaded. Usually it takes 2.5 hours to load 10 tons of used tires.
Starts Heating (2 Hours)
When feeding is finished, closes the feeding port then ignites the heating system. The internal temperature goes up slowly in the first 2 hours.
Oil Production (10 Hours)
Used tires break down into gas state and solid state under pyrolysis reaction. The gas state enters condensing system, gets liquified and becomes liquid fuel. The oil production process lasts 10 hours. The solid state that is carbon black and steel wire stays inside pyrolysis reactor waiting for discharging.
Cooling Down (3 Hours)
When oil production is finished, leaves the machine to cool down for 3 hours before discharging.
Discharging Carbon Black (2.5 Hours)
Discharges carbon black from reactor by U-shape conveyor. It takes around 2.5 hours.
Discharging Steel Wire (0.5 Hours)
Discharges steel wire mass from reactor by winch. It takes around 30 minutes.
Pyrolysis technology offers a practical solution to recycling of used tires. The original raw materials to make tires which are:
Rubber (natural and synthetic) 41%
Fillers (carbon black, silica, carbon, chalk…) 30%
Reinforcing materials (steel, polyester, rayon, nylon) 15%
Plasticizers (oils and resins) 6%
Chemicals for vulcanization (sulphur, zinc oxide…) 6%
Anti-ageing agents and other chemicals 2%
are 100% recycled and become usable products with marketing values. Tire pyrolysis plant not only solves the environmental problem of used tires, but also create a profitable business with high ROI.
