Recovered carbon black is a material obtained from the recycling of waste or end-of-life tires and waste rubber using pyrolysis process. It is considered as an environmentally-friendly substitute for virgin carbon black as it offers significant reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) emission compared to virgin carbon black production. Recovered carbon black is used in several applications similar to that of virgin carbon black.
Increasing governmental regulations regarding the use of environmentally-friendly and sustainable products in several end-use industries such as automotive, rubber, and plastics is expected to provide growth opportunities for the recovered carbon black market, globally.
