2TPH Tire Recycling Plant Installed in Turkey for TDF Production

Fante has completed the installation and commissioning of a waste tire recycling system at a recycling facility in Turkey. The project processes waste tires at a capacity of 2 tons per hour and produces 50 mm rubber blocks for use as Tire-Derived Fuel (TDF).

The project focuses on efficient primary shredding and consistent output sizing. By matching the equipment configuration with the customer’s TDF requirements, the system provides a practical solution for converting end-of-life tires into a usable alternative fuel.

Project Overview

The Turkish customer operates a waste tire recycling facility and required a reliable system to process waste tires into uniform rubber blocks.

The main project requirements were:

• Location: Turkey
• Material: Waste tires
• Processing capacity: 2 TPH
• Final product: 50 mm rubber blocks
• End use: Tire-Derived Fuel (TDF)

For this application, the customer did not require fine rubber granules or rubber powder. The main objective was to produce properly sized tire-derived fuel with stable throughput and reliable operation.

Customized Tire Shredding Solution

Based on the required output and processing capacity, Fante designed a dedicated waste tire shredding system around the customer’s production requirements.

The tire shredder machine serves as the core processing unit. It reduces whole waste tires into rubber blocks while maintaining a controlled discharge size suitable for TDF applications.

The system uses a practical process design to avoid unnecessary secondary processing. This helps reduce equipment investment, simplify operation and make maintenance more manageable for the customer.

For a 2 TPH application, stable feeding is also important. The feeding and conveying system works together with the main shredder to maintain a continuous material flow and support consistent production.

50 mm Rubber Blocks for TDF

The finished product from the line is approximately 50 mm rubber blocks.

This output size is suitable for TDF applications where processed waste tires are used as an alternative fuel. Producing the required size directly at the primary shredding stage can simplify the overall process compared with systems designed for rubber granulation or powder production.

The tire shredder machine is configured according to the customer’s required output rather than using a standard configuration without considering the final application.

This approach allows the system to focus on three key requirements:

• Consistent rubber block size
• Stable 2 TPH processing capacity
• Continuous operation for TDF production

Installation and On-Site Commissioning

After the equipment arrived at the customer’s facility in Turkey, Fante’s technical team supported the installation and commissioning process.

The installation focused on equipment positioning, conveyor connection, electrical integration and system testing. Engineers also checked the feeding and discharge process to ensure smooth material flow through the production system.

Before production, the complete system was tested under operating conditions. The tire shredder machine was checked for stable feeding, shredding performance and output consistency.

The commissioning process helped the customer understand the equipment operation and establish a reliable production workflow.

Customer Feedback

Following installation and testing, the customer expressed positive feedback on the equipment performance and overall project support.

The customer was particularly satisfied with the stable operation, practical system configuration and ability to produce the required 50 mm rubber blocks for TDF applications.

The successful commissioning also gave the customer greater confidence in the equipment’s ability to support continuous waste tire processing.

Why Fante for Waste Tire Recycling?

For waste tire recycling projects, equipment selection should start with the material, required capacity and final product, rather than simply selecting individual machines.

Fante develops customized recycling solutions based on the customer’s actual production requirements. For this Turkish project, the system was designed specifically around a 2 TPH capacity and 50 mm TDF output.

Key advantages include:

Application-Based System Design

The equipment configuration is selected according to the customer’s final product and application. This avoids unnecessary processing stages and keeps the production system practical.

Stable Processing Performance

The shredding system is designed for continuous waste tire processing. Proper equipment matching helps maintain stable material feeding and output.

Professional Installation Support

Fante provides technical guidance during installation and commissioning. The team assists with equipment setup, system testing and initial operation.

Customized Recycling Solutions

Different projects require different output sizes, capacities and process configurations. Fante can develop solutions for TDF production, rubber granulation and rubber powder production according to specific project requirements.

A Practical TDF Solution for Waste Tires

This Turkey project demonstrates how a properly configured waste tire recycling system can convert end-of-life tires into a useful fuel product.

With a 2 TPH processing capacity and 50 mm rubber block output, the system provides the customer with a straightforward solution for TDF production while keeping the process focused on the actual application.

For customers planning a waste tire recycling project, Fante can evaluate the feedstock, required capacity and target output to develop a suitable shredding and recycling solution.
