Creating Value-Added Carbon Black Alternatives for Tire & Rubber Manufacturing Using Reclaimed Pyrolysis Pyro Carbon

Klean Industries is advancing the development of sustainable carbon black alternatives by converting tire pyrolysis char into high-value recovered carbon products—supporting circularity, carbon reduction, and material innovation across multiple industries.

Vancouver, Canada – Klean Industries Inc. now offers technology solutions, know-how, and consulting services for upgrading and refining pyro carbon char. The KleanTeam are the leading experts in creating added value to reclaimed carbon blacks, and has been consulting on all aspects of technical carbon for over a decade. The tire pyrolysis process can only produce a char and can never be commercially viable without a proven carbon enhancement technology. Klean Industries is now taking on new engagements to help retrofit and upgrade many failed pyrolysis technologies globally. We can provide complete system design and EPC consulting services concerning advanced solutions for upgrading, purifying, and pelletizing reclaimed carbon black using nano-carbon technologies.

Purifying and removing inherent impurities and contaminants out of recovered carbon black is very difficult due to the strong interaction between the solid arrangement of particles and aggregates and how they interact. Because of such properties, carbon materials, including carbon blacks, are typically used for absorbing or removing impurities; for example, activated carbon is used for purifying drinking water. Klean Industries can implement many dry and wet processing methods and various specialized classifying and milling technologies.

Dispersion is another key issue for reclaimed carbon black, as is the problem with impurities and also pellet quality. A powder or fluffy form is generally the best in terms of dispersion. Still, the compounding industry does not receive it well due to load-ability, dustiness, shipping/handling costs, and air pollution issues. Today, the carbon black industry relies primarily on pellets in one form or another: dry, wet, oil, encapsulate, and/or flake. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages depending on the carbon application.

Klean’s carbon upgrading technologies and solutions convert raw pyrolyzed, carbon-rich char into reinforcing carbon black fillers with improved performance characteristics. This upgraded carbon can be used in many applications, blending with commercial grades of carbon blacks for automotive rubber parts manufacturing, producing activated carbons for flue gas emissions treatment, and wastewater cleaning applications.

Suppose you have a tire pyrolysis project that produces low-grade landfill carbon char and wants to produce high-grade carbon black and activated carbon. In that case, there is no need to waste time evaluating the project’s costs and merits because Klean Industries evaluates dozens of projects and potential projects each month. This keeps Klean Industries current with environmental regulations, permitting requirements, and perhaps most importantly, equipment costs, both designed and installed. With this knowledge and experience, the Company can creatively look at your situation and offer the best solution for your budget. We can give you detailed budgetary capital cost quotes for early consideration by prospective customers; please call us for a consultation.

Klean Industries has unique solutions for increasing the value of tire-derived carbon char and offers an optional carbon purchase program where they can buy back the finished and upgraded high-quality carbon black and or activated carbon black. Klean Industries has a substantial demand for high-quality carbon materials, with customers worldwide buying such products. With offices in Tokyo, London, and Vancouver, the Klean Team is just a phone call away.
