Klean Industries has unveiled a revolutionary discovery — what it calls “renewable oil fields”— created through advanced pyrolysis systems that transform waste tires and plastics into sustainable, high-value fuels and energy products.

Vancouver, British Columbia – Klean Industries Inc. (“Klean”), a cleantech company specializing in the conversion of waste into energy and recovered resources, is pleased to announce that the company has increased its manufacturing capabilities with dedicated kiln fabrication facilities in Germany, United States, Japan, and China. This further enhances the company’s ability to rapidly deploy projects in Europe, North America, and Asia as a key equipment manufacturer for extracting high-grade oil, resources, and energy from waste. As a consolidated brand, Klean is nearing its 17th anniversary as a specialist in the design, engineering, manufacturing, and construction of projects that use advanced thermal processing technologies known as gasification, pyrolysis, and carbonization, which convert scrap tires, waste plastics, and municipal solid waste into domestic energy, sustainable commodities, and new cleantech jobs.

Klean owns an impressive portfolio of IPs of commercialized technologies that have been continuously improved over six decades of development and commercial use in various waste conversion applications. Klean’s modular approach to serial production reactors and key process equipment is supported by decades of operation and industry-leading performance guarantees that give Klean a leadership position in commercialized tire pyrolysis. Klean’s vertically integrated approach enables equipment manufacturing to be completed in as little as 90 days in some cases, allowing for projects to be completely assembled and operating in far less time than any of its competitors. The company offers its technology to the marketplace under several different business models, primarily focusing on the corporate ownership of facilities. It is also open to joint ventures and licensed plant sales with the right partners.

Klean has also reinforced its current business initiatives by coupling its manufacturing capabilities with trade finance relationships. By establishing and strengthening international trade finance relationships with the Export Development Bank of Canada (www.edc.ca) and Elevate Financial Corp (www.elevatefinance.ca), the company is now able to offer new and existing customers with financing on highly competitive terms for loans to purchase plants and equipment of all sizes on approved credit (“OAC”) of up to 85% both secured and unsecured depending on size and financial requirements.

As a key corporate initiative, Klean is rolling out several tire pyrolysis projects over the next 5 years with some significant partnerships in the tire and carbon black manufacturing sectors. The company has three immediate projects in the final stages of financial closure, and the first of its large-scale recovered carbon black plants in North America is in Boardman, Oregon. This facility is designed to process approximately 50,000 metric tonnes of scrap tires annually and is slated to begin construction before the end of the first quarter 2021. This project is followed closely by a second tire pyrolysis plant in Illinois and a third tire pyrolysis facility in South Carolina, where both projects will process an estimated 175,000 metric tonnes of waste tires combined.

In Europe, the company has initiated several additional projects with tire feedstock partners and product end-users within the tire and rubber manufacturing sectors. With tire pyrolysis design and engineering offices in Berlin, Germany, the company will provide additional project updates in due course.

As a part of its European project rollout strategy, the UK, Germany, Spain, and Greece are key locations where the company has projects in the advanced stages of development. As a key strategy in the company’s aggressive plans to continue its leadership position in scrap tire pyrolysis recycling, the company is continuing to invest in the production of high-grade pyrolysis oils produced from the processing of waste tires as an additional raw material source for various petrochemical companies who have not only a mandate to procure such product but a desire to enable a more sustainable chemical supply chain within the definition of the International Standard of DIN EN ISO 14021:2016-07.

Extracting Pyrolysis Oil from Urban Oil Fields

• Our investment plans support the construction of additional capacities for pyrolysis oil production;
• Our technologies have surpassed many milestones in establishing a circular economy for end-of-life tires and rubber waste;
• Our tire pyrolysis systems adhere to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: #8 Decent Work and Economic Growth, #9 Industry Innovation and Infrastructure, #11 Sustainable Cities and Communities, #12 Responsible Consumption and Production, and #13 Climate Action
• Our pyrolysis oils partly replace fossil fuel feedstock and can be processed into new chemical products such as new carbon blacks for new tire production and plastic production;
• Our solutions generate carbon offsets, which have been shown in several lifecycle analyses to offset carbon emissions of a minimum of 1 metric tonne of emissions for every 1 tonne (1:1 minimum offset) of pyrolysis oil used to make new plastics and or RTFO / RIN fuels.

Klean continues to collaborate with many industry partners and is open to partnerships that are interested in acting quickly in participating in commercial project endeavors, as Klean is not interested in doing pilot plants. The company’s technologies are already long past pilot-proving phases, as the Klean Team has been doing pyrolysis-based projects since the early 1970s with process engineering. This passion is entrenched in our corporate culture, evident in the team’s success in the tire pyrolysis sector. Klean believes in a collaborative environment where actions speak louder than words, and that taking action is the only way to accelerate the path toward a circular economy we all want and need.

Klean envisions symbiotic partnerships and believes in mutually beneficial cooperation. With an estimated 125,000 metric tonnes of pyrolysis oil production in the United States and an estimated 150,000 metric tonnes coming online in Europe over the next five years, doing business with the right partners is essential.

Scrap Tires & Waste Rubber Products - A Refined Oil Resource

• Imagine discovering an oil field that produces +25,000 metric tonnes per year (approximately 175,000 barrels) of refined fuel oil (not crude) yearly. That is over 20 times more than the average production of crude oil wells in the United States.
• Imagine that this oil field requires no exploration and no wellhead drilling and replenishes itself yearly with more oil than you started with.
• What if you got paid to process the oil field and got to keep the oil at the same time?
• What if we told you this solution also prevents pollution and simultaneously produces carbon credits?
• Well, this is not science fiction; it is just one part of Klean Industries’ business model.

The Energy Information Administration (“EIA”) estimates that 2020 the average cost to drill for oil in the United States will be $18 million to $20 million per hole. This does not include the cost of exploration, rights, or other fees. By comparison, Klean Industries can source refined oil without prospecting, drilling, or producing additional carbon emissions into the environment.

As an example, a Klean facility that processes 150 tonnes of scrap tires per day produces +25,000 metric tonnes of refined oil equivalent to an oil quality of MDO 1% and +20,000 tonnes of recovered carbon black that can be used to replace N300 to N700 series carbon blacks.

In most cases, scrap tires are delivered to Klean facilities, where the company is paid a gate fee or tipping fee to process these waste tires. As long as vehicles use tires, the source of Klean’s oil never runs out, and in fact, it renews itself each year. The company’s source of oil is expanding as world consumption of tires increases, and it’s estimated that by 2030, the world will produce over 3 billion scrap tires per year. Currently, over 1.6 billion new tires are manufactured annually, and approximately 10 billion scrap tires are in stockpiles around the globe. In the United States alone, over 350 million scrap tires are produced yearly. If Klean facilities processed all these, more than 10 million barrels of refined VLSO 1% oil would be made yearly.

Don’t hesitate to contact us below to secure a long-term supply of high-quality tire pyrolysis oil as a carbon-friendly alternative to virgin fossil fuel. Our Pyrolysis oil complies with the United Kingdom’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligations (“RTFO”) and Renewable Identification Numbers (“RINs”), which are credits used for compliance and are the “currency” of the Renewable Fuels Program (“RFS”) program.
