better quality than plastic pyrolysis oil, the amount of
waste tire is minimal compare to plastic waste and the oil
production is less. Additionally, by product of the tire
pyrolysis plant carbon residue and tire wire from waste
tire, the plant entrepreneur need to find an opportunity to
process these by products due to the amount of the by
product is correspondent to the oil product.
Turning waste to energy is not only financial profit-
able but it also environmental friendly business which
the government should offer a strong policy to encourage
the entrepreneur to invest in the waste to energy busi-
ness.
