60 Ton Per Day Tire Processing Facility In Ghana

To meet the client’s operational and commercial goals, a fully integrated tire recycling system was designed around continuous feeding, stable heat control, and high product recovery. The front end of the plant included a receiving yard, manual inspection area, bead removal, and primary shredding to reduce tire size and protect downstream equipment. A magnetic separation stage was added to recover steel early and improve reactor efficiency.

The core of the plant consisted of two 30-ton-per-day continuous pyrolysis lines, allowing the facility to process 60 tons per day with better uptime and easier maintenance scheduling than a single larger line. This arrangement also gave the client flexibility to run one line during maintenance or lower feedstock periods. The reactor system was equipped with automated temperature control, sealed feeding, and controlled discharge to improve oil yield consistency and reduce operator dependence.

A multi-stage condensation and oil recovery system was configured to capture tire-derived oil efficiently, while non-condensable gas was recycled back into the furnace to reduce external fuel consumption. The flue-gas treatment package included dust removal, scrubbing, and odor control to help the plant meet local environmental expectations and maintain better community acceptance. In addition, the char handling section was designed for safe cooling, packaging, and storage so that recovered carbon black could be sold into industrial applications where appropriate.

The engineering package also included operator training, spare parts provisioning, and a preventive maintenance plan. This was important for the Ghanaian market, where stable operation, local serviceability, and simple maintenance routines can be more valuable than complex automation alone. The final solution gave the client a system that was commercially attractive, operationally practical, and scalable for future expansion.
