Scrap Tire Disposal Procedures

Abstract

Abstract Many procedures and processes for the disposal of scrap tires are available. Because of the complexity of the whole disposal problem—e.g., collection logistics, availability and location of markets for products generated from scrap tires, as well as economics—no one procedure or process is believed to be sufficiently outstanding that all scrap tires would be so processed. Several procedures or processes must be used to solve this industry problem. The procedure or process selected for disposing of scrap tires will be dictated primarily by economics and geographic location. Certainly, all procedures must be proven environmentally acceptable.
