Tyre pyrolysis process is a chemical method that works by heating organic waste in a sealed space without any oxygen. Because there is no air, the material doesn't catch fire; instead, it melts and breaks down into new forms.

C&D waste has become an inevitable outcome of India’s rapidly expanding built environment. C&D waste is generated during construction, renovation, and demolition activities associated with buildings, roads, and large infrastructure projects.

At the core of any tyre recycling operation lies the shredding process, which plays a pivotal role in downsizing scrap tyres for further material recovery. However, with numerous manufacturers offering a wide range of shredding technologies, choosing the right shredder can be challenging, particularly for new entrepreneurs entering the sector.

Biomass, an organic material derived from plants, crops, and agricultural or forestry residues, is rapidly becoming a central component of global renewable energy strategies. As industries and governments intensify their push toward carbon neutrality, biomass offers a dependable, scalable, and circular alternative to fossil fuels.

In this evolving landscape, Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) and Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) have become two main alternate fuel categories derived from MSW. While both originate from the same raw material, they differ significantly in terms of how they are recovered.

End-of-life tyres present one of the most complex waste streams in the recycling industry. Unlike single-material wastes, tyres are engineered to be durable, combining rubber, steel, textiles, and chemical additives into a highly resilient structure. This very durability makes them difficult to recycle, as they must first be dismantled into manageable, contaminant-free fractions before they can be converted into new products or fuels.

As Indian cement plants accelerate their shift toward alternative fuels and raw materials (AFR), Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) has emerged as a strategic substitute for fossil fuels. However, the assumption that RDF is a uniform commodity is misleading.

The tyre recycling business in Saudi Arabia, although still in its nascent stages, is steadily expanding, fuelled by the country's broad sustainability objectives and growth in the automotive and industrial sectors.
