Russian rubber industry development status

There are three kinds of waste tire treatment in Russia: mechanical crushing, thermal cracking and thermal energy conversion, of which there are 24 mechanical crushing treatment enterprises in the alliance, 5 thermal cracking enterprises and 2 thermal energy conversion enterprises, but thermal cracking and thermal energy conversion are not recognized by the government as the scope of recycling treatment. At the same time, the alliance has formulated waste tire recycling rules in 2017, engineering tires are not in the rules, and are expected to be included in the future. In 2018, Russia produced 800,000 tons of waste tires, which is 160,000 tons according to the prescribed 20% processing capacity, and the existing processing capacity is 250,000 to 300,000 tons/year, which can meet the current processing indicators. However, as the indicators increase year by year, the future processing capacity will not be able to meet.

At the same time, the alliance also spreads the environmental concept of waste tire recycling to the public, clarifies the social responsibility of tire manufacturers and importers in the process of marketization, and encourages the development of more systematic and optimized waste tire collection and transportation means; In conjunction with the Russian Tire Manufacturers Association to carry out government lobbying work, and work closely with government agencies to collect market information to provide to government-supported and encouraged processing enterprises; Increase the awareness of participation of all enterprises and individuals, and promote the direct docking of tire manufacturers and recycling enterprises, making the process more open and transparent.

The alliance has more than 40 inspection lists for the qualification of the winning enterprises, including the transport volume of waste tires, the consumption of electricity, energy, equipment, the number of employees, etc., through the above information to determine the processing volume, and then provide financial subsidies. The alliance provides a subsidy fee of 720 yuan/ton for the winning enterprises, and will conduct random inspections and video surveillance.
