★ In 2014, the production of tires exceeded 300 million, and the sales volume of various automobiles reached 23.49 million. The automobile market has the largest scale in the world, and it is predicted that it will reach more than 30 million by 2020.
★ According to the figures released by the National Development and Reform Commission's "China Resources Comprehensive Utilization Annual Report (2012)", the amount of used tires in China in 2011 was about 10 million tons. With the rapid development of China's economy, the development of the automobile industry is growing by 5%-6% per year. In 2013, the national waste tire production amounted to 10.8 million tons, surpassing the United States and becoming the world's largest producer of used tires. It does not include a large number of waste rubber products, motorcycle tires, electric tires, bicycle tires, rubber shoes, etc., which are scrapped every year. The number of used rubber rubber products is also several million tons. The amount of waste rubber and used tires produced each year is conservatively estimated at more than 15 million tons.
★ In 2014, the annual production of used tires in the country was about 10 million tons, and the harmless utilization rate was about 60%, including about 14 million retreaded tires. Due to the influence of the national standard "Safety Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation" and "Three Non-Packages" (not repaired, not replaced, not refunded), nearly 70% of tire retreading enterprises are in a state of suspension or semi-discontinuation, causing Great economic loss.
★ The main chemical components of used tires are natural rubber and synthetic rubber, and also contain many other substances, such as styrene, butadiene, butyl, isooxypolybutadiene, glass fiber, polyester, zinc oxide, stearic acid, Sulfur, metals, pigments, carbon black, etc. They are reusable resources. There are more than 500 tire renovation enterprises in China, over 4 million old tires and over 500 reclaimed rubber enterprises, with an annual output of nearly 400,000 tons of recycled rubber. Nearly 60 enterprises, with an annual output of less than 50,000 tons of rubber powder, can use about 26 million to 30 million used tires, saving a lot of rubber resources.
