Approximately 350 million tons of plastic waste are generated each year globally, yet less than 10% is recycled. The fundamental reason lies in the inherent “ceiling” of traditional mechanical recycling—it…

Within the grand narrative of the global circular economy and the “dual-carbon” goals, a Chinese enterprise is quietly reshaping the global landscape of the scrap tire treatment industry. Niutech, a…

Traditional plastic treatment methods—landfilling and incineration—are facing mounting environmental and policy pressures. Against this backdrop, chemical recycling technology has emerged as a new direction and new hope for plastic pollution…

Scrap tires are currently one of the most abundant solid wastes produced globally, with over one billion generated each year. Faced with this stubborn waste that is difficult to degrade…

As a key technology for solving plastic pollution and promoting the circular economy, chemical recycling of plastics is facing unprecedented development opportunities. However, in its journey toward large-scale commercialization, this…

Due to their complex composition—including natural and synthetic rubber, carbon black, and various chemical additives—scrap tires are extremely difficult to decompose in nature, taking over a hundred years to break…

In April 2026, the European Union submitted a draft revision of Regulation (EU) 2022/1616 to the World Trade Organization (WTO), marking a new phase in the EU’s oversight of recycled…

The EU’s Circular Economy Act is set to comprehensively reshape the tire industry—from product design and production responsibility to waste management—driving its transformation toward a closed-loop ecosystem of “resources →…

As global plastic production continues to rise and the pressure to control pollution becomes increasingly severe, plastic recycling has become a critical link in achieving sustainable development. Traditional recycling pathways…

Tire recycling operations and scrap tire treatment technologies have been developing for many years. End-of-life tires from vehicles can be processed through retreading, the production of reclaimed rubber or rubber…
