Raw Carbon / Carbon Char

A Sustainable Foundation Material Derived from End-of-Life Tyres

In our commitment to maximizing resource utilization and minimizing waste, Gravita produces high-quality Carbon Char (also known as Raw Carbon) through the processing of recycled Tyres. This material serves as a valuable intermediate product and a sustainable alternative in various industrial applications. By extracting Carbon Char from end-of-life Tyres, we contribute to a more circular economy and offer a resource-efficient solution.

Carbon Char, also known as Raw Carbon, is produced during the pyrolysis of waste Tyres. This material contains a mix of carbon and mineral ash, making it a versatile raw material for several industrial processes.

Key Benefits

  • Resource Recovery: Converts waste into valuable carbon material.
  • Cost-Effective: Provides an economical alternative to traditional carbon sources.
  • Sustainable: Serves as a raw material for further processing into products like Recovered Carbon Black.
  • Waste Reduction: Diverts volumes of end-of-life Tyres from landfills, addressing environmental challenge.
  • Versatile Intermediate: Can be utilized in various applications, including as a fuel source, in certain metallurgical processes and as a precursor for activated carbon production.
  • Lower Emissions: Overall environmental footprint associated with raw material sourcing can be reduced compared to traditional methods.
  • Enabler for Circular Economy: Embodies the core tenets of a circular economy by transforming waste into a valuable resource for further utilization.

Applications

  • Metallurgical processes (as a reducing agent)
  • Cement and construction industries
  • Soil enhancement and filtration media
