1. TYRE PYROLYSIS PROCESS
Pyrolysis is the chemical decomposition of organic
materials by heating in the absence of oxygen or any other
reagents, except possibly steam.
Pyrolysis can be used to reprocess the tyres into fuel oil,
fuel gas, solid residue (steel wire) and carbon black.
The waste tyres are mainly composed of long chain of C-H
molecules.
Under normal process conditions the heat transfer will be
done by radiation.
The technology of pyrolysis, cracking, and monomerisation
of used tyres is always a hot topic.
2. TYRE PYROLYSIS
End-of-life tyres contain a lot of chemical bound energy.
As a result of pyrolysis of waste tyres one obtains: high-energy gas, Pyrolysis
oils, carbon black and steel wire. The ratios of the first three products depend
on process conditions, mainly on temperature.
The pyrolysis method for recycling used tyres is a technique, which heats
whole or shredded tyres in a reactor vessel containing an oxygen free
atmosphere and a heat source.
In the reactor the rubber is softened after which the rubber polymers
continuously breakdown into smaller molecule.
These smaller molecules eventually vaporize and exit from the reactor.
These vapors can be burned directly to produce power or condensed into an
oily type liquid, generally used as a fuel.
Some molecules are too small to condense. They remain as a gas, which can
be burned as fuel which can be reused in the same plant.
2. TYRE PYROLYSIS
The minerals that were part of the tyre, about 40 to 45 % by
weight, are removed as a solid.
When performed well a tyre pyrolysis process is a very clean
operation and has nearly no emissions or waste.
The properties of the gas, liquid and solid output are determined
by the type of feedstock used and the process conditions.
For instance, whole tyres contain fibers and steel. Shredded tyres
have most of the steel and sometimes most of the fiber removed.
Batch wise Process is done by tyre pyrolysis.
The steel can be removed from the solid stream with magnets for
recycling. The remaining solid material often referred to as
"charcoal".

10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
REACTOR
Made from heat resistance Plate.
It is of three types
A. Flat model
B. Capsule model
C. Flat and capsule combination.
Reactor is consider as the heart of
this plant.
Raw material feed inside will start
converting to gas at 300-350 degree
Celsius.
Anaerobic heating process takes
place.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
INSULATION TANK
It is also called gas
separator tank because
gas obtained by heating
raw material from reactor
will get separate here.
Hence oil produce will
store in the bottom of tank
and gas will move further
to water coolant pipe.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
WATER SEAL TANK
It is also called the vertical
tank which is jacketed from
all sides and coolant pipe is
connected to this tank.
Gas and oil will come from
the water coolant pipe to
water seal tank and oil will
store to oil tank which is
connected to water seal
tank.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
CARBON HOLDING TANK
Carbon holding tank
which is in water seal
tank in this tank oil and
carbon will mix well a n d
will move to pipe
condenser and car bon
particles will set down.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
GAS TANK
Gas tank is made from 5 mm
MS plate . This excess
hydrocarbon gas which is in gas
tank is very dry and does not
contain any oil particles . Hence
we can either burn it through
auto spark at the end of the
chimney to release in the air or
can be stored in gas balloon in
order to reuse it as agent in the
chamber for heating reactor in
next recycling process.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
UNDERGROUND OIL TANK
Should be 40% oil store
in this tank.
Light gas transfer to gas
tank from this under
ground oil tank.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
WATER COOLANT PIPE
(HORIZONTAL)
It is also called Jacketed pipe.
Here the water gets circulated
inside the pipe that lowers the
temperature of vapors
converting it into oil.
Thus oil and uncondensed
vapors gets separated here
leaving oil at the bottom of the
tank and gas moving further.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
CONDENSING PIPE
This pipe is very useful to increase Yield
Percentage.
It is usually designed in zigzag pattern, so
it creates huge condensing area. Very
easy to maintain.
Condenser is coil type. Total 24 coils are
used in this pipe.
The more the coils faster the cooling
process. Hence more yield percentages
obtained.
Continuous water supply converts
condensed vapor into oil, which is
transferred into oil receiving tank and the
uncondensed gas travels to the next level.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
COOLING TOWER
It has 70 TR capacity.
It is very useful for
cooling of hot vapors to
oil.
It generally has a very
long life.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
SMOKE CHIMNEY (100 FEET)
Smoke chimney is connected
to wet scrubber system.
Black smoke is converted to
white smoke via scrubber
system which will be released
through chimney into air.
It is of 100 FT so that
pollution is prevented into air.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
BLOWER
It helps reducing the processing time
of whole process to maintain number
of batches throughout the month.
It is used to decrease the
temperature of reactor quickly, which
helps increase the number of
batches.
This in total helps increasing the
productivity & With the help of
cooling blower at least 24 batches
can be achieved in a month.
It has 5HP motor which is to take the
hot smoke out of the plant.
10. TYRE PYROLYSIS PLANT & ITS COMPONENTS
WET SCRUBBER SYSTEM
It consist of water
sprinklers inside the pipe.
Polluted smoke coming
from the process is
continuously sprinkled by
water.
Hence carbon gets settle
down at the bottom of the
tank & white smoke will be
released through chimney.
