In recent years, the world is facing increasingly severe environmental challenges. Therefore, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This goal aims to achieve global economic, social and environmental sustainable development by 2030. Among them, biochar, as an innovative agricultural and environmental management technology, plays an important role in achieving … Read more
Globally, about 4 billion waste tires are buried or stockpiled, with approximately 1.8 billion new tires discarded each year. Through pyrolysis processing, these tires can be converted into valuable by-products—including pyrolysis carbon black (PCB). On average, every 10 kilograms of automotive tires contains roughly 3 kilograms of carbon black, resulting … Read more
In the recycling and processing of waste tyres, the pyrolytic carbon black grinding and granulation process plays a crucial role. With the increasing emphasis on environmental protection and resource recycling, pyrolytic carbon black is not only widely applied in the rubber industry. It also holds significant economic and environmental value. … Read more
With the advancement of carbon reduction goals and the circular economy, the resource utilization of waste plastics and end-of-life tires has become a focal point in the chemical and energy industries. Through pyrolysis, they can be converted into usable liquid pyrolysis oil. However, how can we ensure that such oils … Read more
Plastic waste trade has long been a global challenge, connecting producers, exporters, and importers in a complex chain. Today, import bans are changing this landscape, forcing countries to rethink how plastic should be managed. These shifts are setting the stage for more localized, accountable, and sustainable systems. Global Background of … Read more
1. Introduction 1.1 Background Overview With the development of global pyrolysis technology, the pyrolysis and refining technologies for waste tires and plastics have been continuously upgraded. Traditional pyrolysis and distillation processes have problems such as high energy consumption, lengthy process flow, and large equipment footprint. This is why the integrated … Read more
As climate challenges intensify, governments and businesses are confronted with the urgent task of cutting emissions and accelerating low-carbon transitions. To drive this shift, a range of mechanisms has emerged to assign economic value to emission reductions and carbon removal efforts. Among them, carbon trading has become central, divided into … Read more
Under the global push for carbon neutrality, Europe is facing an industrial trilemma: achieving climate-neutrality while securing its strategic autonomy and industrial competitiveness. The metallurgical industry, as the backbone of European industry, consumes about 50–60 million tonnes of metallurgical coal annually. CO₂ emissions from this sector account for approximately 8% … Read more
Pyrolysis oil is a product obtained from the pyrolysis of waste plastics, rubber tires, or oil sludge under oxygen-free conditions. It serves as an alternative to conventional fuels in industrial heating systems and can also be upgraded into valuable products like non-standard diesel or naphtha. So, how can we assess … Read more
Plastic is one of the most influential inventions of the 20th century, bringing immense convenience to modern life. However, it has gradually become a global environmental challenge. With rising production levels, shorter usage cycles, and low recycling rates, the carbon footprint of the plastics industry has become an increasingly serious … Read more
