PRTI

Converting Tire Waste Into Bitcoin

PRTI is on a mission to efficiently demanufacture a portion of the 317-million tires that are disposed of in the United States every year. The demanufacturing process breaks down tires into oil, syngas, carbon and steel. The commodities can be sold or converted into clean energy. Excess methane created during the process offered an opportunity to power a green energy powered cryptocurrency mining operation.

The Solution

Excess methane gas is ignited to create heat, which is then used to push air through a turbine. The turbine converts the hot air into power for crypto mining

500 KW

Enough clean energy is created to power a 500Kw mining operation

Remotely managed by MiningStore from the Network Operations Center in Houston, Texas

300

Eight GPU rigs to mine Ethereum 24/7

MiningStore remotely manages the operation from our network operations center in Houston.

The Result

Mining Ethereum allowed PRTI to more efficiently convert excess methane gas into energy that was then converted into a valuable asset in the form of ethereum cryptocurrency.

This solution helps PRTI maintain a carbon neutral status.
The positive ROI on the cryptocurrency mining operation paved the way for expanded tire recycling facilities.
PRTI is able to efficiently utilize their clean energy 24/7, even when sending energy to the local grid is not an option.
