[Problem] To provide a method for efficiently producing a chemical product from a
waste material containing
waste tires by improving each step in a series of processes to realize long-term operation of the processes. [Solution] This method for producing a chemical product involves a
pyrolysis step for obtaining, through
pyrolysis of a crushed product of a
waste material including
waste tires, a first gas component, a
pyrolysis oil, and a residual component, a low-temperature hydrogenation step for subjecting a
raw material oil containing at least part of the
pyrolysis oil to a low-temperature hydrogenation treatment at a temperature of 180°C-350°C to obtain a low-temperature hydrogenated oil, a high-temperature hydrogenation step for subjecting a
raw material oil containing at least part of the low-temperature hydrogenated oil to a hydrogenation treatment at a temperature higher than that of the low-temperature hydrogenation treatment to obtain a second gas component and a high-temperature hydrogenated oil, a separation step for separating a
naphtha fraction from other fractions through atmospheric
distillation of an atmospheric
distillation raw material oil containing
crude oil and at least part of the high-temperature hydrogenated oil, and a steam
cracking step for subjecting a steam
cracking raw material oil containing at least part of the
naphtha fraction and / or other fractions to a steam
cracking treatment to obtain a chemical product, wherein the amount of the
pyrolysis oil with respect to the total amount of the first gas component, the
pyrolysis oil, and the residual component in the pyrolysis step is 40% by
mass or more.
