Toxic, Inefficient, Wasteful: 49% of Waste Tires Are Burned for Fuel
PowerLink extracts far more energy, PLUS recovers steel and rubber.
Every year, 246 million waste tires pile up in the U.S. alone, according to Popular Mechanics. Here’s where they go: 49% are burned for fuel (toxic and inefficient), 26% ground into low-value filler, and 11% dumped in landfills where they sit for decades.
The rest? Repurposed into playground surfaces and road barriers—better than burning, but still leaching toxins into the environment.
It’s a far cry from what we consider efficient, people-friendly recycling. And it’s throwing away steel, rubber, and energy (or should we say money).
At PowerLink, we transform tires. Our patented process extracts high-grade steel and rubber composites as well as propane and other gases that we convert into low-carbon diesel, powering itself in the process with plenty of excess energy to sell or use for other purposes. Nearly no waste. Low emissions. Just commodities ready for sale or use.
The Investment Case for Smarter Tire Recycling
For investors, this is an opportunity where profit potential and social and environmental impact align. We’re aiming to turn a billion-ton problem into multiple revenue streams, all from a raw material that costs nothing (sometimes we are paid to take them), yet is widely tossed into landfills and is environmentally dangerous.
What we do will create jobs, it’s a means to generate power in infrastructure-limited places, and it’s positioning America as a leader in waste-to-value technology.
