    In a couple of garages I help out at, they have a truck owned by a recycling company that collects scrap tyres every couple of months. The tyres either end up on go-kart tracks or they're used for making soft grade tarmac for playgrounds.

    Texas used to grind up tires and mix them in the stone used to make blacktop, the reads would rust from the steel belts, they also used ground glass and the roads would sparkle at night.

    "recycling" usually means using some old mateial and rejuvinating it, that it has the old qualities - e.g. using old P.E.T. bottles to generate P.E.T.
    Burning polymers is not recycling, as the process cannot be repeated at all.

    OK. I understand all this stuff, I worked in this industry, so true story.
    I was having my tyres(tires for US), changed, and the fitter discussed with me the disposal situation, I mentioned that they were often used for fuel in the cement works.
    Ok next the usual discussion about black smoke, then "What about the steel in the walls?", I explained that Iron was useful in the process as part of the of production.
    The fitter then said "Wow, I always wondered how they made re-inforced concrete ".
    If you can burn them whole, so much the better, shredding is a pain.

    I think they burn the tyres in the long kilns on top of their normal fuel (this was done to reduce fuel costs) the result is clinker with steel fragments in from the wires in the tyres, in it that can rust, Blue Circle Cement tried it in the late 90s, what comes out of the kilns is clinker which then goes into the ball mills.

      When coal plants used tires as extra fuel, it did leave some residue and steel with the remaining ash. In modern cement plants, the tire is dropped directly in to the kiln as a heat booster, the steel vaporizes to iron oxide into the cement.

    The best use of worn tyres is "roadside barriers" The barriers currently being used are metal barriers. Putting used tyres would be great because they will lessen the impact and minimise damage. People can put the some tyres in their garages where they can prevent the garage walls just in case poeple mistakenly put their foot on accelerator.

As they said it is just a small part of the total tires that are discarded...8 billion or so tires discarded a year in the world turns out to be a heck of a lot of tires..wondering which countries utilize this process..did find it odd that adults did not know what a quarry is though.

    That is funny. There was a power plant near Wesley, California that burned tires until lightning set the pile of tires on fire and the government got involved and forced them to shut down. The people who ran the generation plant told me that the tires burned better than coal and put off less pollutants as well. The ash left and the metal were recycled. They had filters and scrubbers that passed the stringent EPA guidelines of California. I think all major cities should have at least one plant that burns used tires so they do not fill up the land fills.

    Answer to question below: The combustion of the tires is so complete that there is little ash, and it goes harmlessly into the cement, as does the coal ash. The steel belts are the necessary iron in the formula.They could also use scrap glass (bottles) for the silica in the formula.

    Well, You could cut the tire in half so you have 2 tires in a way. 2 Tire rings. lay them down on a Dirt road thats being worked on. the pour the gravel over top of them. It will help stable the road, so it does not wash away in heavy rain. bunch of Ppl do it on the East Coast. It keeps the tires out of landfills and repurposes the tires for another use when they cant be used on cars and trucks and such.

    Considering these cement factories, planes flying over our head. Power Stations , shipping ply our oceans............ I wager that the least oxygen is used by humans and animals and to consider that one engine in a Jumbo jet uses about two tons of oxygen per second............ our poor children will not have much oxygen to breath in their lungs.

    A good idea, but then if i understand there is too much steel in tyres to use them instead of milled coal, why then just shred them with a metal-non-metal separator ?Is there too much sulfur in rubber to use it mixed up with coal ?can't them separate rubber from metallic structure to "inject" the raw materials as pure energy and in a second point to "correct" the clinker base ?I' m interested in like both of us ...It may be more interesting to reuse rubber that schred the entire tyres .work on a similar process in "Maroc" and unfortunately we "block" the preheat tower using another energetic material cause of a solid sulfur ring .Hope they find the way to recapture sulfur where it become "solid" .

      Shredding tires is done but it is very energy intensive making the economics hard to sustain. Another commenter mentioned that using them whole was much easier because shredding “ was a pain”.

    Tore are not actually recycled. They are simply ground up and added to cement or placed in playgrounds. Basically instead of throwing tires into a landfill they dispose of them in public places like parks and roadways. I also want to point out the serious issue of road conditions in California. When you use too much filler in concrete it makes it weak and brittle. This is why California roadways are Shit and damaged after 2-3 years.

    Tires can be ground to very small pieces and added to asphalt to make roads that are more durable in heat because the rubber can expand and more durable in the winter because the rubber is more elastic as well. Fact: There are more BTU's in a ton of used tires than a ton of coal. Just don't act like a jerk when you are going through a plant. We need ood engineers and technicians to run them - and curious people, not idiots!

    • @earleford8889
      @earleford8889 7 місяців тому

      Yes they can be ground but it takes much energy to get it to usable form. This is why asphalt plants are more likely to use tires as feul than to incorporate their rubber. The market makes virgin ingredients cheaper because the market has no way of including environmental costs in bottom line calculations.

    This is not recycling tires. They are in no way being used as tires again. They are being burned and used as fuel acceleration. At least a good way to dispose of them without contamination.
