On November 20, Pyrum Innovations AG (Pyrum) received the unlimited delivery approval from Continental for the Pyrum recovered Carbon Black (rCB) of the plant in Dillingen/Saar. As part of the Continental audit, Pyrum successfully carried out the process capability analysis for the two new lines in recent weeks. The analysis serves to evaluate the short and long-term process stability. The values determined show a long-term capability (Cpk) of 2.16 for TAD 2 and 2.70 for TAD 3 as well as a short-term capability (Ppk) of 2.49 (TAD 2) and 3.38 (TAD 3). The results are above the required standard values specified by the automotive industry (Cpk: 1.33; Ppk: 1.67).

Reoil – a tire pyrolysis operator from Polish – has announced its exclusive partnership with HARKE Chemicals GmbH, who will distribute the company's "ReBlack" recovered carbon black (rCB) and tire pyrolysis oil (TPO) in Europe and the United Kingdom. According to Reoil, this collaboration focuses on sustainability and the circular economy. Reoil's products, which are obtained from the recovery of end-of-life-tires (ELT), offer environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional raw materials and help reduce waste and CO2 emissions.

The tire waste recycling industry is transforming after 25 years of gradual progress. Traditionally, recycling focuses on mechanical processes to separate and recover rubber, steel, and fiber from End-of-Life Tires (ELTs), with applications developed for products like sports turf, civil engineering, mats, and even fuel for cement kilns.

The EU has chosen Bolder Industries’ end-of-life tire (ELT) pyrolysis project as one of 85 initiatives to receive grants under its €4.8-billion net-zero fund, supporting the deployment of clean technologies across Europe. The project, known as NextGen thermal tire re-use, is part of the Port of Antwerp’s NextGen District and aligns with the EU’s goals to reduce emissions and advance industrial decarbonization.

The third scientific AZuR Colloquium took place on October 10, 2024, on the Jülich campus of the Aachen University of Applied Sciences (FH Aachen) with high participation. Forty scientists from various universities, institutes, and disciplines came together to discuss current research findings and projects related to the sustainable reuse and recycling of end-of-life tires. The agenda included workshops, discussion panels, and keynote presentations on topics such as the pyrolytic utilization of end-of-life tire granulate, the use of old rubber granulates in flood protection, and the future of recovered carbon black (rCB) as a sustainable filler.

Anva Polytech has announced a significant reduction in emissions—over 1,000,000 kg of CO₂ equivalents—by incorporating recovered carbon black (rCB) from Scandinavian Enviro Systems into its rubber products.

Bilfinger has been awarded with comprehensive Engineering, Procurement, and Construction management (EPCm) services for a groundbreaking tire recycling facility in Delfzijl, the Netherlands, by UK-based technology company Circtec. Utilizing Circtec's proprietary technology, their first commercial-scale plant will transform end-of-life tires into valuable resources, such as chemicals and biofuels, through pyrolysis.

In a world grappling with environmental challenges, finding ways to recycle and repurpose materials has never been more critical. At the heart of this movement is recovered carbon black (rCB), an innovative material derived from end-of-life tires (ELTs) through pyrolysis. This promising material offers a pathway to sustainable, high-value applications that can help reshape industries ranging from energy to environmental remediation.

Smithers' inaugural Recovered Carbon Black Asia 2024 is coming up next week on 24-25 September, 2024 in Qingdao, China.
