As a rapidly developing emerging economy, India's tire pyrolysis industry is at a critical stage of development. At present, India's tire pyrolysis industry faces many challenges and opportunities.

Waste tire pyrolysis plant business in India

From the current status of the industry, on the one hand, India has a huge market demand for tires. With the rapid development of industries such as automobiles, industrial machinery and transportation, the use of tires is increasing. On the other hand, the problem of waste tire treatment is becoming increasingly prominent. Some small waste tire pyrolysis plants are widely distributed in the Indian subcontinent. They have small production scales, simple equipment, imperfect process, and waste emissions do not meet environmental standards.

However, India's tire pyrolysis industry also faces huge opportunities. With the continuous improvement of environmental awareness, the government and society are paying more and more attention to sustainable development. The Central Pollution Control Board launched a new SOP for batch and continuous tire pyrolysis plants in January 2024, focusing on promoting the upgrade from batch tire pyrolysis technology to fully continuous pyrolysis technology, and it is expected to complete the full upgrade in 2025. This move will bring new development opportunities to the industry and promote the industry to develop in a more environmentally friendly and efficient direction. At the same time, the global demand for waste tire recycling and pyrolysis machines is also growing. As an important market, India is expected to attract more investment and technical support in the future.

(1) Establishment of Industrial Parks

At the meeting of the Tire and Rubber Recyclers Association of India (TRRAI), all parties had an in-depth discussion on the development of the tire pyrolysis industry. Anand Kumar, Director and Head of the Waste Management Department of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), emphasized the current problems facing the tire pyrolysis industry and called for the establishment of a dedicated industrial park for tire manufacturers, recyclers, and pyrolysis plants to achieve the centralized and standardized development of the industry.

Waste tire pyrolysis plant industrial parks

The establishment of dedicated industrial parks is of great significance. First, industrial parks can realize the centralized utilization of resources, improve production efficiency, and reduce production costs.

Second, industrial parks can promote the coordinated development of industries, form upstream and downstream relationships in the industrial chain, and realize the recycling of resources. For example, the waste tires produced by tire manufacturers can be directly supplied to recyclers for processing. Recyclers can supply the pyrolysis oil, carbon black and other products produced by pyrolysis of waste tires to tire manufacturers as raw materials, thus realizing the closed-loop development of the industry.

In addition, industrial parks can strengthen environmental protection supervision and reduce the risk of environmental pollution. In industrial parks, a unified environmental protection supervision system can be established to strictly supervise the waste emissions of enterprises to ensure that environmental protection standards are met. At the same time, industrial parks can centrally process waste and reduce pollution to the environment.

(2) Promotion of fully continuous pyrolysis technology

① Efficient and environmentally friendly production model

The fully continuous tire pyrolysis plant operates in a closed manner throughout the production process, and has better environmental performance. The fully continuous pyrolysis plant adopts a continuous feeding and continuous oil discharge process. The entire process is carried out continuously, without wasting heat energy, reducing energy consumption and environmental pollution. Compared with traditional intermittent pyrolysis plant, the fully continuous pyrolysis plant does not need to cool down before next batch of loading, saving a lot of time and improving production efficiency.

Fully continuous tire pyrolysis technology in India

Although the investment in fully continuous pyrolysis plant is larger than that in batch pyrolysis plant, its supporting equipment is more complete. It is necessary to remove the steel wire from the tire, and then crush the tire into rubber powder and feed it through the feeding device, which requires supporting tire pretreatment equipment, tire wire drawing machine and tire cutting machine, etc. For enterprises with large tire processing capacity, fully continuous tire pyrolysis plant is more suitable.

② Resource utilization rate is greatly improved

The fully continuous tire pyrolysis technology has a high recovery rate for fuel oil, carbon black, steel wire and other products, and the resource utilization rate is greatly improved. pyrolysis rate>99%; waste heat utilization rate>90%.

The fully continuous pyrolysis technology realizes the industrial continuous operation of the pyrolysis equipment under the premise of safety and environmental protection through the organic combination of multiple technologies, providing strong technical support for the upgrading of India's tire pyrolysis industry.

From the perspective of market demand, with the continued growth of India's economy, the development momentum of industries such as automobiles and construction machinery is strong, and the use of tires will continue to rise. This means that the number of waste tires will also increase accordingly, providing a sufficient source of raw materials for the tire pyrolysis industry. According to market forecast data, India's tire market demand will continue to grow in the next few years, which will bring huge market space for the pyrolysis industry.

The upgrade of full-continuous pyrolysis technology will further enhance the competitiveness of India's tire pyrolysis industry. As mentioned above, with the continuous maturity and promotion of full-continuous tire pyrolysis technology, India's pyrolysis companies will be able to produce higher-quality products more efficiently to meet the needs of domestic and foreign markets.

Fully continuous tire oil pyrolysis plant advantages

In terms of policy, the new SOP of the Central Pollution Control Board and the call for the establishment of special industrial parks provide strong support for the development of the industry. In addition, local governments may also introduce relevant preferential policies, such as tax exemptions, subsidies, etc., to encourage enterprises to increase investment in technology research and development and equipment renewal to promote the sustainable development of the industry.

As a sustainable way of resource recycling, waste tire pyrolysis will receive more and more attention and support. As a country with a large population and a rapidly developing economy, India has great potential in the tire pyrolysis industry.
