Biofuel discovery: start-up company breathes new life into old tyres

Biofuel discovery: start-up company breathes new life into old tyres


A green start-up technology company has surprised scientists by producing a biofuel from old rubber tyres that can run turbo-charged diesel engines while reducing emissions by 30 per cent.

Green Distillation Technologies (GDT) can produce 3,000 litres of bio-oil from one giant seven-tonne mining truck tyre.

It hopes to increase production to more than 8 millions litres annually by mid-2017.

Director Trevor Bayley said the company used a technique known as destructive distillation to convert wasted, old rubber into renewable energy.

He said the idea was driven by a desire to reduce massive stockpiles around the world which are growing at a rate of over a billion tyres a year.

"We are able to convert this wasted resource and environmental hazard into high demand valuable raw materials," Mr Bayley said.

"The process is emission-free and some of the recycled oil is used as the heat source for the production process.

"It begins by loading end-of-life tyres into a process chamber, which is evacuated of air and sealed.
