Country	United Kingdom
City	Corringham

Type	TRL 9 Commercial
Technology	Hydrotreatment
Technology additional information	thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions’ advanced thermal treatment technology and Haldor Topsoe’s HydroFlex™ renewable fuels technology.
Raw Material	other
Input 1	Waste Tyre feedstock (300 t/d)
Output 1	renewable diesel (HVO) (0 t/y )
Output 2	sustainable aviation fuels SAF
Output additional information	Renewable drop-in advanced biofuels for diesel and petrol; capability to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF)

Partners	The conceptual design was developed in Canada by Green Tire Technology Ltd, led by Roman Cintula, and then implemented in the UK in partnership with Greenergy. The project will use thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions’ advanced thermal treatment technology and Haldor Topsoe’s HydroFlex™ renewable fuels technology.
Technology Brief	The project will utilise pyrolysis and hydrotreating technologies to convert waste tyres into renewable drop-in advanced biofuels that can be used in diesel and petrol and qualify as development fuels under the UK’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation. The plant will also have the capability to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Processing up to 300 tonnes of shredded tyres each day in the first phase, the manufacturing process also creates recovered carbon black, a product that can be used in the circular economy to produce new tyres and other industrial rubber products.
Additional Information	The plant is earmarked to be located at Thames Enterprise Park, a Greenergy joint venture near London, subject to planning approval and with a view to commence commercial production in 2025.
