Australian tire recycler receives environmental approval for NSW plant

May 27, 2019 |

In Australia, tire recycler Green Distillation Technologies, which has developed world-first technology that transforms old tires into oil, carbon and steel, has received environmental approval for their Warren, New South Wales plant and building development approval for their proposed Toowoomba plant.

GDT said that the New South Wales Environment License was issued under a new regulation that recognized the uniqueness of their process, while the Toowoomba Development Approval came from the Toowoomba Regional Council and included all the other Government approvals needed to move ahead and build the plant.

The oil they obtain from recycling old tires will go to the newly-built Northern Oil refinery at Gladstone, North Queensland where it is the vital raw material in the Queensland Government plans to create an environmental fuels hub.
