High-Value Fuel Alternatives Derived From End-of-Life Tires
What Is TPO and Why Is It Valuable?
As a product of End-of-Life Tire (ELT) pyrolysis, TPO is utilized as a renewable and circular co-processing feedstock in refinery and hydrotreating units to produce low-carbon fuels. It can also be used as a bio-bunker blend, industrial fuel oil, or as a feedstock for carbon black production.
High calorific value
Reduced sulfur content compared to heavy fuel oil
Suitable for boilers, furnaces, heaters, and industrial combustion
Provides a sustainable end-use for waste tires
Tire Pyrolysis Oil is widely used across heavy industries as a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to fossil-based heavy fuel oil. Its high energy content makes it suitable for industrial boilers, furnaces, rotary kilns, and heating systems used in steel mills, cement factories, textile plants, and chemical manufacturing.
TPO also functions as a feedstock for further refinement into cleaner fuels, supporting industries seeking to reduce carbon emissions while maintaining operational efficiency. As companies transition into energy diversification and ESG compliance, TPO becomes an important renewable resource within their fuel mix strategy.
