This workshop will discuss different types of sustainable carbon blacks including circular carbon blacks (made from tire pyrolysis oil on a furnace process), renewable carbon blacks (made from pine oil on a furnace process), methane pyrolysis carbon blacks (made from methane and bio-methane by plasma-arc decomposition) and recovered carbon blacks (made from selected end-of-life-tires by pyrolysis and subsequent post-treatment).
A panel consisting of sustainable carbon black producers will each present their individual approaches to sustainable carbon blacks as well as discuss together about the topic.
Time: 13:00 BST / 14:00 CEST / 08:00 EDT

Motivated by the tire and automotive industries' increased requirements for sustainable rubber fillers, the carbon black industry is now developing product portfolios of carbon black varieties with green credentials such as low carbon footprint and biobased or recycled feedstocks.
