Tyre Pyrolysis

What Tyre Pyrolysis does

MC Pyrolysis is a Chinese industrial equipment manufacturer specializing in continuous pyrolysis technology for end-of-life tire recycling. Founded in 2004 and headquartered in Linyi, Shandong Province, the company designs and builds continuous pyrolysis plants that convert waste tires into fuel oil (approximately 42 MJ/kg calorific value), recovered carbon black (rCB) meeting industry grades such as N660 and N770, and steel wire. Its proprietary technology portfolio includes two continuous reactor architectures — a screw running model with anti-coking design enabling 100 days of continuous operation, and a drum running model capable of directly processing 5-10 cm rubber blocks at 50 tons per day — both operating at low temperatures (300-450°C) under micro-negative pressure in oxygen-deficient environments. The company also offers complementary equipment lines including tire shredding and preprocessing systems (200-10,000 kg/h capacity), pyrolysis oil distillation plants with 85-95% diesel recovery, and rCB refining modules.

The company sells large-scale custom-built industrial equipment primarily through direct enterprise field sales, supported by a multi-language (20+ languages) website, social media channels, industry conference participation, and WhatsApp/email-based inquiry handling. Customers are enterprise-level operators of large-scale tire recycling facilities, industrial waste-to-energy projects, and fuel oil or carbon black producers across 45 countries. MC Pyrolysis holds ISO9001, ISO14001, and CE certifications and employs 400+ skilled professionals. Pricing is custom-quoted per project based on capacity, automation level, environmental equipment, and auxiliary systems, with multi-year contracts typical. The revenue model is fundamentally hardware sales (capital equipment), augmented by pre-project consulting that assists clients in securing long-term offtake contracts before system installation.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• Michelin & Bridgestone (Joint Initiative)coreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 1 January 2022Michelin and Bridgestone outlined a joint initiative in 2022 to accelerate rCB (recovered carbon black) adoption in the tire industry. The collaboration focuses on: (1) Standardization — defining grades/specifications for rCB in tire production; (2) Supplier Engagement — aligning rCB quality with industry requirements; (3) Circularity Goals — with 1 billion tires (30 million tonnes) discarded annually and <1% of CB currently recycled, rCB could cut CO₂ emissions by 85% versus virgin CB. While this is an industry-wide collaboration rather than a direct MC Pyrolysis partnership, the company positions itself to benefit from and contribute to this rCB standardization movement.
