Rubber Chips for TDF: Tyre-Derived Fuel from End-of-Life Tyres (18-22 & 20-22 mm)
Rubber chips (also known as tyre shred) are pieces of rubber produced by shredding end-of-life tyres (ELT), also called waste tyres. They have become one of the most sought-after alternative fuels in industry thanks to their high calorific value and low cost compared with fossil fuels.
What is Tyre-Derived Fuel (TDF)?
TDF (Tyre-Derived Fuel) is rubber from recycled tyres used as an energy source in high-temperature industrial processes. At 3BYT / I Recycle Group we mainly supply SBR rubber chips in two sizes: 18-22 mm and 20-22 mm, with a calorific value of approximately 7,000 to 8,000 kcal/kg.
