RUBBER GRANULATE CONVERSION PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A SEMI-ACTIVE CARBONIZED SUBSTANCE AND A PLASTICIZER

摘要

The present invention relates to a rubber granulate conversion process comprising steps consisting in: a) pyrolysing the rubber granulates at a temperature between 400 and 500° C. in the presence of water, to obtain a carbonized substance and a gaseous phase; and b) recovering the carbonized substance obtained during the previous step. The invention also relates to the products resulting from the conversion process and to the use of said products.
