Advanced Pyrolysis Technology – Pioneering Recycling of Complex Rubber Compounds
At Continental Industries, we are transforming the future of rubber recycling – turning complex waste into high-value resources. With the acquisition of a specialized patent family and the launch of a cutting-edge pilot facility, we are transforming end-of-life rubber into valuable raw materials using advanced pyrolysis technology.
Purified Pyrolysis Oil: A Fossil-Free Alternative
Our proprietary thermal purification process enables the recovery of high-quality pyrolysis oil from complex rubber waste. This oil rivals fossil crude in quality and can be reintegrated into the chemical production cycle. Key outputs include:
- Purified pyrolysis oil
- Recovered carbon black
- Gaseous energy sources
This innovation supports the production of new rubber and plastic products without relying on fossil resources.
Enabling a Circular Economy for Rubber Products
Our technology makes it possible to recycle rubber products that were previously non-recyclable, such as:
- Food-grade hoses
- Rubber-metal composites
- Automotive interior materials
- Conveyor belts
By closing the loop, we reduce environmental impact and promote a circular materials economy.
Driving Industrial Sustainability Through Innovation
Continental Industries continues to lead in sustainable industrial solutions, with hundreds of patents and applications focused on material recovery and eco-friendly production. Our pyrolysis initiative is part of a broader strategy to reduce dependency on fossil resources and enhance the recyclability of complex materials.
