Tire pyrolysis has quietly become one of the more consequential stories in industrial materials. Every year, more than 1.8 billion tires reach the end of their road life worldwide, and the char left behind after they are thermally decomposed is no longer treated as waste — it is being refined into recovered carbon black (rCB), … Read more
In the global field of biomass resource utilization, biochar demonstrates remarkable “situational adaptability.” Ranging from the decentralized waste management of remote forest regions to large-scale, industrialized carbon removal projects, a single technological model is no longer sufficient to meet diverse commercial demands. This trend is driving the evolution of biochar production equipment toward greater differentiation … Read more
In the study of biomass pyrolysis, biochar and charcoal are often confused. Although they appear similar and are both carbonaceous solids produced by heating biomass under oxygen-limited conditions, they differ significantly in production purpose, physicochemical properties, and application scenarios. Charcoal is primarily used as fuel and in industrial applications, whereas biochar is focused on soil … Read more
As the global plastic crisis intensifies, innovative frameworks like Plastic Neutrality and Plastic Credits are gaining more traction, understanding the synergy between them is crucial for any organization committed to a sustainable future. Today, we will delve into the concepts of “plastic neutrality” and “plastic credits,” exploring how they contribute to addressing the global plastic … Read more
In the global effort to combact climate change, carbon markets have become a crucial mechanism for promoting carbon neutrality. Carbon markets are divided into two main types: compliance carbon markets and voluntary carbon market. They play a vital role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supporting sustainable development. 1. Concept and Background of the Carbon … Read more
As the volume of global solid waste continues to increase, thermal treatment technologies have attracted widespread attention due to their potential for waste reduction and energy recovery. Among these, pyrolysis and incineration are the two most representative methods. Although both processes use high temperatures to treat waste, they differ significantly in reaction conditions, types of … Read more
As global warming intensifies, reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) has become a central challenge. In addition to mitigating emissions at their source, society must actively remove existing CO₂ from the atmosphere and store it in stable reservoirs — an approach known as carbon sequestration. In recent years, emerging strategies such as biochar-based carbon sequestration have … Read more
Biochar is a carbon-rich and stable material produced through the pyrolysis of biomass under oxygen-limited or anoxic conditions. As a green resource, biochar shows great promise in agriculture, environmental remediation, waste management, and climate change mitigation. Its performance and application effectiveness are largely determined by its chemical and physical properties. The following sections discuss the … Read more
As global emphasis on sustainable development intensifies, pyrolysis oil is gaining increasing attention in the energy, chemical, and materials sectors. However, the commercialization of pyrolysis oil still faces challenges, such as complex feedstock sources and fluctuating product quality. In this context, ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) has become a key framework, bridging the pyrolysis … Read more
Tyre pyrolysis carbon black industry is a rapidly growing sector that plays a crucial role in the recycling and upcycling of waste tyres. Pyrolysis, a thermochemical process that decomposes organic materials at high temperatures in the absence of oxygen, is used to convert scrap tyres into valuable products such as oil, gas, and carbon black. … Read more
