ERJ staff report (DS)
Minsk, Belarussia - The Belarussian new company startup agency has funded a tyre recycling company. The Belarusian Telegraph Agency reports, “One of the projects suggests building a factory to process automobile tyres into raw materials and to make innovative thermoplastic elastomers. High-quality rubber powder with chemically active surface is the main product of the tyre processing process. The powder is a fully valid substitute for the artificial rubber used to make thermoplastic elastomers.â€
The Agency continues, “The projects have passed a contest-based selection. Authors of the projects have been preparing for the meeting with investors for 1.5 months: experts have been employed to perform market research and calculate business plans.â€
