How It Works

Step by Step
1. Tires come in. Scrap tires are shredded into pieces and fed into a sealed chamber.
2. The chamber heats up. Inside the reactor, the temperature rises to roughly 400–600°C (750–1,100°F). There's no oxygen in the chamber, so nothing burns.
3. The tire falls apart into its ingredients. The heat separates the tire into four things:
What comes outWhat it isWhat it looks like
Carbon blackThe black powder that gives tires their strengthA fine black solid
OilThe oil-based part of the rubber, turned back into liquidA dark oil similar to crude
GasLight gases released during heatingInvisible, burnable
SteelThe wire belts inside the tireClean steel wire
4. The gas powers the plant. The gas is piped straight back to the heaters that run the reactor. Once the plant is running, it largely fuels itself.
5. The carbon black gets cleaned up. This is where our technology stands out. The raw carbon black goes through a finishing line that removes leftover ash and metal, grinds it to an exact size, and forms it into pellets. The result is over 90% pure — clean enough to go straight back into new tires and other products.
6. Everything gets sold. Carbon black to tire and rubber makers. Oil to refineries. Steel to scrap buyers. Nothing goes to a landfill.
Why This Is Different?
Plenty of people have tried pyrolysis. Most produce a low-grade carbon black that's only good for cheap filler.
The difference is control. Our reactor keeps temperature and timing precise so the carbon black comes out intact, and our finishing line polishes it to a purity the market actually wants. It's the difference between making a byproduct and making a commodity.
Clean and Contained
Because the system is sealed and there's no oxygen, there's no open burning and no smoke. The only exhaust comes from the burners that heat the reactor, and that passes through standard filtering before it leaves the building. No process water is discharged.
Not Just Tires
Tires are where we start because they're consistent and energy-rich — a good way to prove the process works. But the same technology can be tuned for other carbon-based waste: plastics, biosolids, agricultural leftovers, and industrial residues.
The machine stays the same. Only the feedstock changes.
