GDT - Tyre Destructive Distillation
A Better Option
Tyre destructive distillation stands out as a remarkable process for converting used tyres into valuable by-products. This method involves the thermal decomposition of tyres in a vacuum-sealed chamber, transforming them into products such as oil, carbon black, and steel. Read more about TDD here.
The task was hard and long but worthy of the time and investment, so the GDT founding group started and completed the journey. From invention to testing then approval and now commercial viability.
The window is now open for those that care about the problem and want to be part of this exciting expansion journey.
Circular economy in action
Recycling is the only way
There is currently an endless reliance on rubber tyres. GDT can be a pioneer in the recycle of forklift tyresThe Goal should be tyre free Landfill
Landfill as a disposal option still represents around 9% of the market.A Legacy Worth Remembering
The ‘Destructive Distillation’ process was developed by an Australian, Denis Randall PhD, Chief Technical Officer (CTO) who obtained degrees in Metallurgy, Mathematics, Chemistry and a doctorate in the Bio- degradation of Subsurface Phenols. Denis worked in the Petro Chemical industry across S.E. Asia for over 35 years with the development of this process occurring in Indonesia over a 15 year period.
GDT’s technology has been diligently recorded and stored for the posterity of the business, this became the lasting legacy from Denis, who passed away in 2022. Read more about the tyre destructive distillation process here.
