Buy and sell tyre pyrolysis oil
End-of-life tyres become a liquid feedstock through pyrolysis — circular, in growing demand, and chemically demanding. Buyers invest in upgrading routes; producers need credible off-takers. Both find each other here, verified from the first message.

What is Tyre Pyrolysis Oil (TPO)?
- Liquid product of pyrolysing shredded end-of-life tyres (ELT)
- Used as chemical feedstock, in heavy fuel blending and advanced-fuel upgrading routes
- Recovers carbon and energy from a hard-to-recycle waste stream — strong circularity narrative
- Quality varies with tyre input, process and refining depth
Typical trading specifications
- Sulphur: elevated vs conventional streams — key negotiation point
- Ash / solids: filtration and settling standards agreed per parcel
- Distillation profile: from raw TPO to refined/desulphurised grades
- Logistics: bulk, heated where required
Certifications
- ISCC Plus (circular economy routes where applicable) — evidence uploadable to your profile
- REACH considerations per grade — evidence uploadable to your profile
Who trades it here
- Sellers: Pyrolysis plant operators, ELT processors upgrading output, Traders in circular streams
- Buyers: Chemical and plastics industry, Advanced fuel upgrading projects, Cement/heavy industry co-processing
Frequently asked questions
What is tyre pyrolysis oil used for?
Raw TPO goes into heavy-fuel co-processing and industrial energy; refined grades feed chemical applications and advanced-fuel pilot routes. Recovered carbon black, steel and off-gas are the co-products that complete the circular model.
Is TPO eligible for fuel incentives?
Regulatory treatment is evolving and differs by jurisdiction — advanced-fuel and circular-economy frameworks rather than classic RED biodiesel rules typically apply. Buyers on the platform indicate which compliance route they source for; keep your process documentation strong.
Which TPO quality parameters matter most?
Sulphur, ash/sediments, water content and the distillation curve. If you refine further, state exactly which steps the oil has been through — upgrading buyers price that precision.
What does it cost to list TPO?
Creating an account, completing KYC and posting offers or requests is free — there are no listing fees and no obligation. Commercial terms are agreed per deal.
