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
