In the Interview, Ewan Scott quizzed Dossena on Ecopneus’s future promotional activities aimed at highlighting the work they do in the tire recycling sector, the ongoing crumb rubber issue with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), the place for tyre-derived fuel in the Italian tyre recycling model and his vision for the agency’s role in 5 to 10 years time.

The Tire Industry Association’s (TIA) Environmental Advisory Council (EAC) has introduced an easy-to-use glossary of key reference terms and definitions used in the tire and rubber recycling industry. The guide, which also contains terms and definitions covering other tire segments, was developed to improve knowledge and communication and serve as a valuable resource for anyone working in the tire recycling industry, said Dick Gust, EAC chairman. As more businesses become concerned with sustainability, the glossary will help to define terms and technologies frequently used in the tire recycling industry and aid state regulators when drafting rules and regulations to manage the flow of scrap tires, he said. Tire dealers also will find it a handy reference when dealing with customers who wish to learn more about where scrap tires go when removed from their vehicles.

Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA) has positioned itself as a leader in understanding these off-the-road (OTR) challenges by talking with various stakeholders in the tire value chain, from minerals councils, mining companies and manufacturers to local government, recyclers and community groups.

Australia’s circular tyre economy expands into the next decade with more opportunities for investors, recyclers and manufacturers The new financial year marks 10 years of operation for Tyre Stewardship Australia and sees more rubber product recycling opportunities opening up across the country than ever before. Industry case studies show rubber product users and recyclers, in metro, regional, rural, and remote areas, are defying challenging economic times to gain value from tyre recycling.

For everyone interested in the conference, Weibold has prepared a special PROMO CODE “RCB22WB”, which gives a special 10% discount.

Following on from last year's hugely successful online event and the 2019 in-person event, Smithers have announced Recovered Carbon Black plans to travel to Amsterdam on the 23-24 November 2021.

Bolder Industries increased investment in technical expertise, physical lab space, and its leadership team based on the success of its pilot programs. The Bolder Industries’ plant in Maryville, Missouri, fully commercialized the solution, accepting end-of-life tires at the gate and extracting steel, BolderBlack® (Bolder Industries' recovered carbon black brand), gas, and petrochemicals with a 98% recovery rate and a net-positive energy facility. The company reports that the net effect is a ~90% reduction of environmental impact across the board when considering greenhouse gas emissions, electricity, and water usage, and at a lower price. The company’s press release in May 2020 said Bolder Industries' patent-pending manufacturing process offered all of the petroleum-based products inside of a tire another life, revealing re-use savings.

Faced with millions of end-of-life tyres in landfill or openly dumped, the Gulf States are developing individual strategies to deal with the waste stream including a growing interest in pyrolysis… The meeting was kicked off by Committee Chairman Max Craipeau of Greencore Resources in China who wondered if “there’s ever been a better time” for tyre recycling. Investors were taking a much closer interest in the sector, especially because of the increasing concern from customers for greater sustainability. “Circularity is finally a reality for the tyre and rubber industry,” he said, referring to chemical recycling such as pyrolysis. “We have always been the poor relative in the recycling industry – because for a long time there was no circularity, as with metals which can be recycled infinitely. “Materials that weren’t necessarily sustainable from a chemical recycling point of view are becoming more and more sustainable thanks to growing demand.”
