Abstract
Pyrolysis of used tires yields oil and pyrolytic carbon black (CB P). The tire pyrolysis process can be performed either in vacuo or at atmospheric pressure. The CB P recovered in both processes are different from the commercial carbon blacks used in the tire fabrication. Different spectroscopic methods such as ESCA, SIMS, Auger-spectroscopy and XRD were used to characterize CB P obtained in commercial tire pyrolysis plants operating in vacuo and at atmospheric pressure. The CB P characteristics were compared with those of rubber-grade carbon black. CB P from vacuum pyrolysis was found to be closer in their chemical nature to commercial carbon black than CB P from atmospheric pyrolysis.
