The REACH-certified Pyrum thermolysis oil is a unique Recycled crude oil for the chemical and plastics industrywhich is produced with the highest quality and consistent excellence. The German chemical company BASF uses the raw material as part of its ChemCyclingTMproject for the manufacture of new chemical products for the plastics industry.
Products that are manufactured using a mass balance approach from Thermolysis oil have been proven to have the same properties as products manufactured using primary fossil resources. They also cause a significant smaller CO2-footprint than conventional products. According to a study by the consultancy Sphera, one tonne of polyamide 6 (PA6) produced with Pyrum thermolysis oil emits around 1.3 tonnes less CO2 than one tonne of PA6 produced with fossil raw materials.
The Pyrum thermolysis oil is a unique Product oilproduced with the highest quality and consistent grade. These aspects make the Pyrum thermolysis oil the first REACH certified recycled oil from rubber waste in Europe. Thanks to the product status of the oil, it can be used as a raw material in various industries (chemical industry, refineries, carbon black production (CB), etc.) and is therefore not subject to waste legislation.
