Turning waste tires into energy
2017-02-09 Can you imagine discovering an oil field that produces 110,000 barrels of refined diesel oil per year? One that requires no exploration, no wellhead drilling & replenishes itself each year with more oil than you started with? What if you actually got paid to process the oil field and got to keep the oil at the same time? What if we told you that you would also be preventing pollution and producing carbon credits at the same time? It’s not science fiction; It’s a very exciting time and we’re proud to be a part of the future of waste to energy.
Waste tire
A tire pyrolysis facility that processes 100 tonnes of waste tires per day produces the following each year:
• One 20 pound tire produces .875 US gallons of oil
• A 100 TPD tyre pyrolysis plant produces 110,000 barrels of oil a year
• A 100 TPD tire pyrolysis plant produces 300 barrels of oil a day.
A commercially proven solution that produces over 15x more than the average producing US oil well!
There are over 350 million waste tires produced in the US each year. If all these were processed by our pyrolysis plant, about 7 million barrels of oil would be produced each year.
The Oxford tire dump Westley California is a typical US tire dump with over 14 million tires. A 100 ton per day an industries plant could process these tires in 6 years and produce over 600,000 barrels of oil.
The US Energy Information Administration reports that in 2006 the average cost to drill for oil in the domestic US was $1.4 million per hole. This does not include the cost of exploration, rights, or any other costs. By comparison, a Tyrolysis Plant can source and produce oil without exploration or drilling.
The oil is delivered to our facility & we are paid to process it. As long as vehicles run our roads the source of our oil renews itself each year, in fact our source of oil is expanding as world consumption of tires is expected to rise from 1.5 billion to 3 billion by 2012.
