Tyre Resource Recovery Facility

Elan Energy Matrix Pty Ltd proposes to construct and operate a Tyre Resource Recovery Facility to recycle used tyres at 9 Fargo Way Welshpool, approximately 12 kilometres southeast of Perth within a ‘General Industry’ zone in the City of Canning.

The proposal will involve thermal processing of used tyres to produce carbon black (material derived from char), steel wire, oil and process gas using an indirect fired thermal conversion unit. The plant will be located within enclosed buildings. Exhaust gases from the process will be discharged to the atmosphere from a 15 metre tall stack.
