Niutech Environment Technology Corporation (Niutech) recently announced that its subsidiary, Shandong Hesheng Environment Technology Co., Ltd. (Hesheng), officially broke ground on a 100,000 TPY tire pyrolysis expansion project. This expansion increases Hesheng’s total annual processing capacity to 160,000 tons, establishing it as a global leader in comprehensive tire resource recovery.

By deploying Niutech’s next-generation, high-capacity intelligent pyrolysis equipment, this expansion sets a new benchmark for throughput, uptime, and automation. These industrial-scale upgrades significantly lower operating costs and enhance project economics, directly addressing the industry's long-standing challenge of achieving stable, large-scale commercial viability. This project highlights Niutech’s leadership in high-end R&D while proving that continuous pyrolysis is now ready for widespread industrial adoption.

On the product aspect, leveraging Niutech's technical R&D capabilities, Hesheng continues to enhance stability and quality of its pyrolysis products. Currently, Hesheng's tire pyrolysis oil has obtained international certifications, enabling it to high-end global markets. Meanwhile, through technological innovation, pyrolysis carbon black is continuously being upgraded toward standardization and high-value-added applications to better meet customer demands for product consistency, stability, and application performance.

As the global circular economy accelerates, demand for high-quality pyrolysis oil and pyrolysis carbon black from international tire manufacturers, chemical companies, and related material customers is steadily growing. Upon completion of the capacity expansion, Hesheng will possess stronger capabilities for large-scale and stable supply, better meeting the downstream market's demand for reliable, high-quality recycled materials in significant volumes.

Niutech also stated that in the future, the company will continue to leverage its technological innovation and capital strengths as a listed company to drive the iterative upgrading and large-scale application of pyrolysis technology and equipment, contributing to the resource recovery and recycling of global waste tires as well as green and low-carbon development.
