Pyrolysis
Whether you are contemplating building new pyrolysis plant, improving your product or process, or expanding your product range, Weibold can help you identify, compare and engage the appropriate equipment suppliers or technology partners for your budget.
Switch to tire recyclingThe industry is experiencing a boom in investment in new technologies and methods. Many of the claims by suppliers and intellectual property holders are unsubstantiated, unproven, or blatantly false.
Weibold’s Technology Evaluation Modules provides you – the project initiator or manager with expert decision making tools in the following efforts:
The Technology Evaluation will allow you to draw on Weibold’s large database of suppliers worldwide and a network of experts in various fields to make intelligent choices on technology to be acquired, expanded, or improved. Leverage our collective know-how to choose the right technology partner, engage on optimum terms, and maximize the bang on your CAPEX buck! Weibold is not affiliated with any technology supplier or intellectual property holder.
Pre-requisites for a Technology Evaluation is either a Pre-Feasibility Study or a clear client mandate with detailed information on issues, goals, budgets, available feedstock, product specifications, and markets. Weibold will research, locate, contact, engage, evaluate, rank, and shortlist a number of technology suppliers for a given technology problem. A team of multi-lingual researchers is available to obtain deep technical information if required. Ranking of potential solutions is based on pre-agreed weighted criteria such as quality, origin, throughput capabilities, relevance to the client’s objectives, price/performance metrics, supplier’s experience, references, and other factors.
Equipment to be so evaluated can include pre-processing equipment, pyrolysis reactors, and post-processing suites such as distillers, refinement, packaging and blending equipment for rCB and oils. Upon request Weibold can also conduct negotiations with suppliers on your behalf.
Weibold is conducting trend, market and technology studies for Clients around the globe. Our Clients include plant operators, investors, lenders, recycling associations, technology providers, and product manufacturers. Now selected cross sections of the knowledge we have collected and pooled in our research database is available for recycling strategists and operators looking for innovations and trends on specific subjects in world-wide markets.
The contents of the Market Research are carefully adjusted to the individual situation of the Client and requirements of the project. The document incldes a comparative overview of traditional tire pyrolysis products, production methods, value adding technologies, and highlights advantages and disadvantages between each type of products.
In the document, Weibold considers the latest developments world-wide in OTR tire pyrolysis and rubber devulcanization technologies. The result of work is a detailed list of technology suppliers qualified for the project and fulfilling its special requirements a) the methods for processing, b) the technical readiness level, c) successful references, d) logistical considerations (weight/volume vs. capital investment), e) and to what extent this application could be applied to the Client's specific situation.
Weibold's Technology Evaluation study will shed light on types of techniques and machinery to enhance quality of recovered carbon black (rCB) and pyrolysis oil. Apart from quality enhancement opportunities, the document will list technologies required to produce consumer goods from tire pyrolysis materials. Recycling tires into materials such as steel-free crumb rubber and fine rubber powder used to be a profitable venture; however, due to market saturation in developed economies, tire recycling companies might want to shift their focus from raw materials to potentially higher-priced consumer goods made from recycled rubber or even virgin rubber which can be replaced by tire-derived materials.
