Establishment and Evaluation of Energy Consumption, Carbon Emission, and Economic Models of Retreaded Tires Based on Life Cycle Theory

This paper identifies the system composition of life cycle retreaded tires and constructs energy consumption model, carbon emission economic model based on theory. Moreover, theoretical calculation method for consumption, emission, economy at production phase, transportation usage reuse phase are proposed. After that, this puts forward substitution reduction cost profit five methods tires, namely, secondary retreading, mechanical pulverization, low-temperature combustion decomposition, power generation. Finally, proposes evaluation index in quantitatively analyzes list each obtaining recovery rate, profit-to-cost ratio tires. The main conclusions as follows: largest while lowest phase. Among methods, effect, retreading optimal ones, quantitative results show that is most effective way waste
