Tire Waste and Recycling takes a methodical approach to the recycling of tires, providing a detailed understanding on how to manage, process, and turn waste tires into valuable materials and industrial applications. Sections cover fundamental aspects such as tire use, composition, trends, legislation, the current global situation, the possibilities for moving towards a circular economy, lifecycle options, treatment methods, and opportunities for re-use, recycling and recovery. Subsequent sections of the book focus on specific technologies that enable the utilization of waste tires in the development of high value materials and advanced applications. Finally, the future of tire recycling is considered. This is an essential resource for scientists, R&D professionals, engineers and manufacturers working in the tire, rubber, waste, recycling, automotive and aerospace industries. In academia, the book will be of interest to researchers and advanced scientists across rubber science, polymer science, materials engineering, environmental science, chemistry and chemical engineering. Offers systematic coverage of tire recycling, covering composition, lifecycle, processing options, material developments and latest technologies Explains end-of-life-options in detail, considering approaches and methods for reduction, re-use, recycling and recovery Explores key application and product areas for recycled tire materials, from civil engineering, sports and leisure, to roads and transport, construction, automotive, and many more

The most significant obstacle to the reprocessing of scrap tires has been the cost of producing recycled rubber in relation to the quality of the product and its value. [...] students currently involved in environmental studies of the border region RESEARCH METHODOLOGY An understanding of the potential and limitations of scrap-tire use for reducing the waste tire piles requires a knowledge of waste tire piles and of the technologies that can be used for the recycle of the waste tires. [...] No.: 011-52-834-3154198 and 01152-834-3155580 E-mail: [email protected] Estimated size of site in Reynosa: 30,000m2 Number of tires currently on site in Reynosa: 500,000 Estimated number of waste tires in the city of Reynosa: 40,000 Estimated size of site in Matamoros: 25,000m2 Number of tires currently on site in Matamoros: 400,000 Estimated number of waste tires in the city of Matamoros: 5. [...] This report concluded, based on an economic point of view, that the shredded tires should be disposed of in the landfill, with the possibility in the future for a portion of the shredded tires to be recycled for the manufacturing of rubber products. [...] RESEARCH BENEFITS This cooperative research program is a combined effort of the University of Utah and the Instituto Tecnologico De Saltillo, on the classification and characterization of waste tire piles, and the development of a further understanding of how to recycle waste tires in the U.
