IMARC pitches tyre pyrolysis plant report for waste-to-fuel investors

By AI, Created 3:30 PM UTC, May 19, 2026, /AGP/ – IMARC Group has released a tyre pyrolysis plant project report that outlines a multi-revenue business model built on waste tyre processing, oil sales, recovered carbon black and EPR certificates. The report frames India as a key market, citing policy support, rising tyre waste volumes and growing demand for pyrolysis oil and recovered carbon black.

Why it matters: - Tyre pyrolysis turns waste tyres into saleable industrial products and can create revenue from both materials and compliance credits. - The business case is strongest where policy support, steady feedstock and nearby buyers line up. - India’s EPR framework gives certified operators a structured supply chain and a second revenue stream beyond product sales.

What happened: - IMARC Group published a Tyre Pyrolysis Plant Project Report covering setup, feasibility, ROI analysis and business planning for tyre pyrolysis projects. - The report targets waste management investors, circular economy entrepreneurs, industrial fuel distributors and banks. - The release says the report includes complete DPR coverage, CapEx and OpEx modeling, and 10-year financial projections. - The company provided a sample report request link and a feasibility report link.

The details: - The pyrolysis process thermally decomposes waste tyres in an oxygen-free reactor and yields tyre pyrolysis oil, recovered carbon black, steel wire and syngas. - Syngas can self-fuel the reactor and cut external energy use. - The proposed plant capacity ranges from 20,000 MT to 50,000 MT of waste tyre input a year. - Gross profit is projected at 35% to 45%. - Net profit is projected at 15% to 20% after financing costs, depreciation and taxes. - Raw materials are estimated at 30% to 40% of OpEx. - Utilities are estimated at 20% to 25% of OpEx. - CapEx covers land, infrastructure, core process equipment, carbon black post-processing, pollution control and pre-operative compliance costs. - The report says financial modeling includes ROI, IRR, NPV, DSCR, break-even analysis and sensitivity tables. - The report compares batch, advanced batch automated and continuous reactor options. - The report also benchmarks unit economics at 20,000 and 50,000 MT per year.

Between the lines: - India is becoming a formal demand center for tyre pyrolysis because EPR rules require tyre producers and importers to finance end-of-life collection and processing. - EPR obligations rose from 35% in 2022-23 to 100% by 2024-25. - The release says India recycled about 3 million MT of tyres in FY2024-25, with pyrolysis accounting for 2.68 MMT. - Tyre pyrolysis oil is positioned as a substitute for furnace oil in cement kilns, industrial boilers and power generation. - The release says NITI Aayog’s May 2026 conference proposed allowing TPO from imported tyre-derived feedstock for use in refineries. - Recovered carbon black is moving toward higher-value uses as upgrading methods improve its quality toward ASTM N300-N500 grade specifications. - The release says NITI Aayog has proposed national quality standards and a separate HSN code for rCB. - The global tyre pyrolysis oil market is valued at USD 383.32 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 622.75 million by 2034. - Asia Pacific leads tyre waste generation and pyrolysis capacity, and India is described as the fastest-growing market.

What’s next: - The report points to continued policy formalization in India, including possible GST rationalization, quality standards and import permissions for waste tyres. - Continuous pyrolysis plants are already signaled as the regulatory direction in Gujarat. - Site selection will keep favoring industrial zones near tyre waste sources and cement or ceramics buyers. - The market outlook depends on feedstock supply, product pricing and compliance with emission and hazardous waste rules.

The bottom line: - IMARC is selling tyre pyrolysis as a policy-backed, multi-product industrial model with revenue from oil, carbon black, steel and certificates, but economics still hinge on regulation, logistics and consistent offtake.
