(picture:Is it profitable to do tire pyrolysis project in Venezuela?)
The current situation in Venezuela where economic crisis and energy shortage coexist has given rise to a huge business opportunity of "turning waste into treasure": tire pyrolysis. Countless investors are exploring the same question: Is it profitable to operate a tire pyrolysis project in Venezuela?
Why is the tire pyrolysis project so popular in Venezuela?
Abundant raw materials
Venezuela generates over 100,000 tons of used tires every year, with an extremely low recycling rate.
Urgent energy demand
Despite being an oil-producing country, Venezuela's insufficient refining capacity has led to a tight supply of fuel. Pyrolysis oil produced from tire pyrolysis can be used as an alternative to industrial fuel, with a strong market demand and highly competitive prices.
Diversified by-product market
The pyrolysis project not only produces oil but also has high-value by-products:
Carbon black: It is used in rubber products, pigments, etc. There is a large local industrial gap.
Steel wire: It can be directly sold to steel recycling plants.
Profit analysis of tire pyrolysis project
Initial investment
The tire pyrolysis equipment cost for a small-scale batch pyrolysis plant (daily capacity: 5-15 tons) is approximately USD 80,000 to 150,000, and the site and labor costs are relatively low.
Revenue calculation
Each ton of waste tires can produce approximately 45% pyrolysis oil, 30% carbon black, 10% steel and 10% syngas (which can be used for self-energy supply of the equipment). The current market price of pyrolysis oil is approximately USD 300 to 400 per ton. The selling price of carbon black is approximately USD 200 to 250 per ton. The price of steel is approximately 150 USD per ton (for reference only, market prices fluctuate).
For every ton of waste tires processed, a considerable amount of fuel oil, carbon black and steel wire can be produced. Under the premise of stable operation, the equipment investment cost can be recovered in the short term.
How to avoid risks and ensure profits?
The potential high returns also come with challenges. The failure of many projects stems from the selection of the wrong equipment and technologies. The following are the core elements of success, and they are precisely the values of HUAYIN Company:
Technical compliance
Traditional tire pyrolysis equipment is prone to generating toxic waste gas and is at risk of being shut down. The fully automatic continuous pyrolysis equipment provided by HUAYIN adopts a closed design and is equipped with an efficient exhaust gas treatment system to ensure that emissions meet environmental protection requirements and guarantee the long-term legal and stable operation of your tire pyrolysis factory.
Equipment reliability
Power outages occur frequently in Venezuela, and it is difficult to import spare parts after equipment malfunctions. The tire pyrolysis equipment of HUAYIN is designed with lower energy consumption and can be equipped with a gas circulation system to achieve energy self-sufficiency. We offer global spare parts supply and online technical support to ensure the stable operation of equipment and minimize downtime.
Oil yield and quality
Poor-quality pyrolysis equipment has a low oil yield and poor oil quality, making it difficult to sell. HUAYIN's tire pyrolysis equipment has an oil yield rate of over 45%, and the pyrolysis oil it produces is of high quality, making it more popular in the market.
In Venezuela, tire pyrolysis is undoubtedly a highly profitable industry with huge potential. However, profits only belong to those investors who enter the market in the right way. Choosing a set of compliant, reliable and efficient tire pyrolysis equipment is the cornerstone for you to avoid risks, ensure the success of the project and achieve continuous profitability.
