Is detrimental gas, such as dioxin, discharged in scrap tire processing?
This processing technology does not carry out “incineration” of a scrap tires. We put scrap tires in the big iron cartridge sealed from the open air; we heat the circumference of the cartridge as if we steamed tires and dissolved them. Inside of the iron cartridge remains solids (charcoal and steel) and what is removed from the dissolved tires is gas and oil. Gas is cooled while passing along the cooling tank pipe connected to the iron cartridge, and it then becomes a liquid (oil). The ingredient of this liquid is a light grade diesel oil; it is then filtered to get rid of the powder charcoal and is collected in a storage facility. Full incineration (oxidization decomposition processing) of the gas which did not become a liquid during the cooling process is burned off at a deodorization furnace (hot incinerator), and it is discharged as harmless gas, such as water and a small amount of carbon dioxide. For this reason, “detrimental gas and smoke” is not generated in principle from this
