My brother in law works at a carbon black plant in Oklahoma. He said they have a huge furnace the size of a high school gymnasium that burns anything to black soot. They get in trainloads of the tar residue and turn it into large piles of carbon black. The clients are paint factories to tire makers. They each have a particular "flavor" or recipe for what they want. They ship it out by the trainload. It is like black baby-powder, only finer particle size.
