King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands has inaugurated Circtec’s pyrolysis plant for recycling end-of-life tires at the Delfzijl chemical industry cluster near Groningen. The opening follows the completion of construction and commissioning, after the investment was announced in May 2024.
The King officially launched the plant by loading waste tires into a CIFR pyrolysis reactor, a proprietary chemical recycling technology developed by Circtec that converts tire waste into high-value products.
Sophie Hermans, the Netherlands deputy prime minister and minister of Climate and Green Growth continued, “What we see here at Circtec is green growth at its best.
