Depending on the location, facilities must obtain state-specific permits related to air quality, water discharge, and waste management. This includes adhering to any regional environmental standards that may be more stringent than federal regulations.
Ensuring worker safety is a key concern. Facilities must comply with OSHA standards related to hazardous materials handling, equipment safety, and workplace conditions.
Compliance with ASTM D3053-21 ensures that recycled carbon black meets specific physical and chemical properties required for use in various industrial applications, including rubber manufacturing.
For facilities operating in the European Union, registering pyrolysis oil under REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals) is essential. This ensures that the oil is safe for use and meets all regulatory requirements for chemical substances.

Implementing rigorous quality control procedures throughout the pyrolysis process is vital. This includes regular sampling and testing of products to ensure they meet specified standards.
Utilizing real-time monitoring and data analysis tools to track the pyrolysis process parameters ensures that deviations are detected and corrected promptly, maintaining consistent product quality.
Ensuring consistent quality of incoming feedstock (waste tires) is crucial. Establishing strong relationships with feedstock suppliers and implementing strict feedstock quality controls helps maintain the consistency of end products.
Compliance with regulatory standards and obtaining relevant certifications are foundational to the successful operation of waste tire pyrolysis facilities. Coupled with robust quality control measures, these elements ensure that the byproducts of pyrolysis meet market demands and regulatory requirements, paving the way for sustainable growth and environmental stewardship in the tire recycling industry.

ASTM R2336 is a standard specification developed by ASTM International for recycled carbon black (rCB) derived from waste tire pyrolysis. This standard outlines the essential physical and chemical properties that rCB must meet to be considered suitable for various industrial applications, including its use in rubber manufacturing, plastics, and coatings.
The ASTM R2336 standard is crucial for ensuring the quality and consistency of recycled carbon black, which plays a significant role in the circular economy by providing a sustainable alternative to traditional carbon black derived from fossil fuels. By adhering to this standard, manufacturers can guarantee that the rCB produced meets specific performance criteria, such as particle size distribution, surface area, and chemical composition, which are critical for maintaining product performance in end-use applications.
Compliance with ASTM R2336 also helps build confidence among end-users and stakeholders by ensuring that rCB products are reliable and consistent, thus fostering greater adoption of sustainable materials in the industry. This standard not only supports environmental sustainability by promoting the use of recycled materials but also contributes to the economic viability of waste tire pyrolysis as a competitive and eco-friendly alternative to conventional carbon black production.
