"We are about to install the equipment of the pyrolysis plant, and it is expected that the first phase of the carbon neutrality project of the whole tire industry chain will be put into operation in September." On July 10, Xu Junshi, chairman of Xinjiang Lunjiang Carbon Neutral Industrial Park Co., Ltd., said.
The pyrolysis plant is one of the two core workshops of the project, and the other core workshop, the crushing workshop, has completed the equipment installation.
"In order to speed up the production progress, our equipment has completed the initial joint debugging and joint test in the production and manufacturing process, which has laid a good foundation for quickly entering the production stage." Xu Junshi said that the company will strengthen on-site equipment installation, staffing, safety management and other aspects of work to ensure the quality and progress of equipment installation.
The first phase of the carbon neutrality project of the whole tire industry chain is one of the major projects in Karamay City, invested and constructed by Xinjiang Wheeljiang Carbon Neutral Industrial Park Co., Ltd., with a total investment of 60 million yuan, a land area of about 30 acres, and a construction area of 9,106 square meters.
The project develops new quality productivity for tire recycling applications by building a whole industrial chain of "tire pyrolysis treatment to produce carbon black, using carbon black, synthetic rubber, and carbon nanotubes to produce wet rubber, tire OEM production and manufacturing, tire intelligent management and service".
As a national high-tech enterprise specializing in the research of carbon neutral solutions for the whole tire industry chain and technology development consulting in the fields of environmental protection, new materials, and networks, Xinjiang Lunjiang Carbon Neutral Industrial Park Co., Ltd. has effectively solved the problems of pyrolysis process and product quality stability through scientific and technological innovation, reducing the power consumption of waste tires by about 30% year-on-year, greatly improving the safety factor and resource recovery rate, and the tire products produced have the advantages of high wear resistance, low rolling resistance, and good wet slip resistance. The overall technology has reached the international advanced level.
In June 2022, the carbon neutrality project of the whole tire industry chain landed in Dushanzi District, and Xinjiang Lunjiang Carbon Neutral Industrial Park Co., Ltd. and the Dushanzi District Government reached a cooperation on jointly giving full play to the advantages of Karamay's petroleum and petrochemical industry and resources, promoting the sustainable application of new tire materials, and helping to upgrade the structure of the tire industry. The project is divided into two phases, with a total investment of about 100 million yuan, and will produce 7,000 tons of carbon black, 3,000 tons of steel wire and 8,000 tons of fuel oil annually after the completion of the project.
