Urban Tyre Waste into High Grade Carbon Graphite
The Urban Tyre Waste Challenge
Across Sub-Saharan cities, massive volumes of end-of-life tyres—ranging from transit buses to commercial fleets—accumulate in unmanaged stockpiles or are burned in open air, contributing to:
- Environmental pollution
- Public health risks
- Lost economic value
Meanwhile, global demand for battery-grade recovered graphite (rCG) is growing rapidly—opening new frontiers for circular economy innovation.
Introducing RE+GRAPHIX
Modular Pyrolysis Platform
Transforms urban tyre waste into valuable carbon-based commodities: high-purity recovered graphite (rCG), recovered carbon black (rCB), and recovered fuel oil (rFO).
Containerised Design
Designed for onsite operation within industrial zones, logistics hubs, or landfill peripheries. Self-powered, low-footprint, and deployable within 6 months.
Flexible Business Model
Operates under a Build-Own-Operate or Public-Private Partnership model, enabling cities to unlock climate, health, and economic benefits.
City Benefits
Waste to Value Conversion
Converts uncontrolled tyre waste into battery-grade graphite (rCG)
Environmental Protection
Reduces emissions and fire risk from tyre dumps and illegal burning
Circular Economy
Produces circular materials (rCB, rFO) for resale or municipal reuse (e.g. asphalt, diesel offset)
Economic Development
Creates local jobs and SME supply chains for tyre collection and plant operation
Investor Benefits
Strong Returns
Attractive IRR from multi-commodity revenue streams (rCG + rCB + rFO)
Scalable Model
Expandable to new cities via replicable modular roll-out
ESG Alignment
Fully aligned with SDG, Net Zero, and Circular Economy investment mandates
