Bangladesh Tyre Pyrolysis

Bangladesh has launched a nationwide campaign targeting illegal tyre pyrolysis plants to stop widespread pollution and restore confidence in safe, sustainable tire recycling practices.

The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change and the Department of Environment (DoE) in Bangladesh conducted a nationwide anti-pollution campaign targeting illegal tyre pyrolysis plants.

Apart from tyre pyrolysis, the anti-pollution initiative in Bangladesh also targeted various sources of pollution, including vehicles emitting excessive black smoke, steel mills contributing to air pollution, illegal brick kilns, noise pollution, hazardous waste discharge, lead-battery recycling factories, landfilling of water bodies, charcoal factories, and the open storage of construction materials causing air pollution.

As a part of the campaign, the DoE conducted 778 mobile court drives across the country, resulting in 1,663 cases. A total of 438 chimneys of illegal brick kilns were demolished, and stern directives for closure were issued to 210 brick kilns. Raw bricks at 124 kilns were destroyed, and the electricity connections of seven brick kilns were disconnected. According to the ministry’s press release, one person was sentenced to jail.

On April 10, 2025, the DoE conducted six mobile court drives in the Dhaka Metropolitan areas of Gulshan-1 and 2, Matuail, Aminbazar, Mohammadampur, and Narayanganj, targeting air pollution from construction materials. The anti-pollution drive in the Aminbazar area also targeted an illegal lead-acid battery smelting factory.

In Gazipur, an operation targeting the filling of water bodies resulted in a warning issued to one individual, alongside a directive to restore the pond to its original condition within five days. Additionally, in the Manikganj and Dinajpur districts, two mobile court drives against illegal brick kilns resulted in eight cases.
