Tyre to Oil Process: From a Molecular Perspective
To get fuel oil from tyre, the focus is on the pyrolysis reaction. This is a high temperature, micro-oxygen reaction that occurs when the tire goes to tyre to oil plant. It usually involves the thermal decomposition of the rubber components of the tyre.
Reaction Components of Tyre Pyrolysis
Natural Rubber:
- Main Component: Polyisoprene.
- Structure: (−CH2−C(CH3)=CH−CH2−)n
Synthetic Rubber:
- Main Component: Styrene-Butadiene copolymer.
- Structure: [−CH2−CH(C6H5)−]m−[−CH2−CH=CH−CH2−]n
Reaction Stage in Tyre Pyrolysis
Polymer Chain Cleavage:
Long-chain polymer molecules of tyre break at high temperatures to produce free radicals. Free radicals further induce chain cleavage to generate small molecule olefins, such as C5 (isoprene), C4 (butene), C6 (hexene), etc. This process also forms light hydrocarbons like methane and ethylene.
Cracking & Recombination:
Small molecule olefins will continue to crack or recombine to form C5-C10 hydrocarbon molecules. The aromatic ring part of styrene in synthetic rubber may produce aromatic compounds such as benzene and toluene at high temperatures. Small molecular hydrocarbons formed by tyre pyrolysis plant form pyrolysis oil from the condensable part.

It can be directly burned as an industrial fuel and is generally sold to glass factories, steel factories, ceramic factories, cement factories, etc.
Processed into Naphtha
After distillation, naphtha is obtained to use in plastic manufacturing or as a solvent.
Generate Electricity
After distillation, non-standard diesel components can be used in heavy oil generator sets to generate electricity.
Naphtha / Non-Standard Diesel

- as Marine & Construction Machinery Fuel
Oil Rate Report of Beston Tire to Oil Plant
As an important performance indicator of a tyre oil plant, the oil rate determines the cost-effectiveness of the investment. A machine with an excellent oil rate will produce more tire pyrolysis oil. Thereby creating more economic value. Beston Group has been committed to developing equipment with higher production efficiency. Therefore, we do experiments based on different types of tire raw materials. Below is the experimental data from Beston’s technical team for your reference.

| Waste tire | Truck tires | 45%-50% | 15%-20% | 30% | 5%-10% |
| Car tires | 40%-45% | 10%-15% | 40% | 5%-10% | |
| Bicycle/motorcycle tires | 30%-35% | 5%-10% | 10% | 5%-10% |
Environmental Contributions of Tire to Oil Plant
Waste Reduction
Tyre oil plant plays a vital role in reducing solid waste. By processing discarded tires, the equipment diverts large volumes of non-biodegradable materials away from landfills. This not only conserves landfill space but also prevents long-term environmental degradation caused by slow tire decomposition.
Pollution Prevention
Open burning of tires releases toxic gases, particulate matter, and harmful chemicals into the atmosphere. Tyre to oil technology eliminates the need for burning, offering a clean and contained process. This significantly reduces air pollution and protects both ecosystems and human health.
Resource Recovery
The pyrolysis process enables the recovery of useful resources from waste tires. It generates valuable carbon black and TPO that can be reused in industrial applications. This helps reduce dependence on fossil resources and supports circular economy practices.
Promotes Sustainable Development
Tyre to oil plant offers an environmentally responsible method of waste disposal. Pyrolysis plant contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions when compared to traditional methods. As more countries seek green solutions for waste management, the system supports the global transition toward sustainable development.
