How the TDF Tire Shredding Line Works

Whole Tire Feeding System

Whole passenger tires, truck tires, or OTR tires are loaded into the primary tire shredding system through a conveyor or hydraulic feeding system for continuous operation.

TDF Tire Shredding Process

The dual shaft TDF tire shredding system processes scrap tires into 50–150 mm tire chips and TDF fuel shreds for cement kilns, industrial boilers, and waste-to-energy applications.

Tire Chips Screening System

Optional screening equipment separates oversized tire chips and automatically returns them for secondary shredding to maintain uniform TDF chip size.

Magnetic Separation for Wire-Free TDF

Optional magnetic separators remove steel wire from the shredded tire chips to improve fuel quality and produce cleaner tire derived fuel (TDF).

Applications of Tire Derived Fuel (TDF)

Tire Derived Fuel (TDF) is widely used as an industrial alternative fuel. The 50–150 mm tire chips produced by the TDF tire shredding line can be used in cement kilns, industrial boilers, paper mills, power plants, and waste-to-energy facilities.

Compared with ordinary waste tire disposal, TDF production gives scrap tires a higher-value use and helps industrial users reduce fuel costs.

Why Use Tire Derived Fuel Instead of Coal?

TDF fuel chips have a high calorific value and can be used as a replacement or supplement for coal in many industrial combustion systems. For cement plants and boilers, tire derived fuel offers stable heat output, lower fuel cost, and better waste tire utilization.

The final TDF chip size can be adjusted according to customer requirements, commonly including 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm, and 150 mm tire chips.

Wire-Free TDF Fuel Solution

For customers who require cleaner fuel quality, the TDF tire recycling line can be equipped with magnetic separation systems to remove steel wire from shredded tire chips. This helps produce cleaner, more stable, and easier-to-handle wire-free TDF.

Wire-free TDF is suitable for cement kilns, boilers, and industrial fuel users with higher requirements for combustion quality and material handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TDF fuel?

TDF means Tire Derived Fuel. It is made by shredding scrap tires into fuel chips or tire shreds for industrial energy applications.

What size are TDF tire chips?

Common TDF chip sizes are 50–150 mm. The output size can be adjusted according to the requirements of cement kilns, boilers, or power plants.

What is the difference between TDF and TDA?

TDF is mainly used as industrial fuel, while TDA, or Tire Derived Aggregate, is mainly used in civil engineering projects as lightweight filling or drainage material.

Can TDF replace coal?

Yes. TDF can be used as an alternative fuel or supplementary fuel in cement kilns, industrial boilers, paper mills, and power plants.

What tires can be processed?

The TDF tire shredding line can process passenger car tires, truck tires, and OTR tires. The final configuration depends on tire size, capacity, and output requirements.

Can steel wire be removed from TDF chips?

Yes. Magnetic separators can be added to remove steel wire and produce cleaner wire-free TDF fuel chips.

How much does a TDF tire shredding line cost?

The price depends on tire type, capacity, output size, automation level, and whether magnetic separation or secondary shredding is required. Contact HVST for a customized factory quotation.
