Theoretically, the oil yield of waste tire pyrolysis can reach 45% - 50%, that is, about 450 to 500 kilograms of tire oil can be refined from one ton of waste tires. However, in the actual production process, the oil yield often decreases, mainly affected by the following factors. 1.Tire typesTires of different types vary in material, structure and oil content. For example, large engineering tires, truck tires and steel cord tires generally have a relatively high oil yield due to their high manufacturing specifications and good quality. These tires have a high rubber content and better rubber quality, so they can produce more fuel during the pyrolysis process. In contrast, ordinary car tires, motorcycle tires and bicycle tires have a lower oil yield because they are used with lower intensity and the specification requirements during manufacturing are not as strict as those of steel cord tires. In addition, the degree of tire wear also affects the oil content and thus the oil yield.2.Equipment and
