When the Rubber Meets the Road
Large amounts of rubber particles are dispersed into the environment due to tire wear. The rubber contains a wide range of chemicals, including several of environmental concern. The purpose of this thesis, which is based on six papers [I–VI], was to assess the ecotoxicological hazard and risk associated with tire wear particles, with a main focus on the aquatic environment. A method was develop...
متن کاملTire-wear particles as a source of zinc to the environment.
Tire-tread material has a zinc (Zn) content of about 1 wt %. The quantity of tread material lost to road surfaces by abrasion has not been well characterized. Two approaches were used to assess the magnitude of this nonpoint source of Zn in the U.S. for the period 1936-1999. In the first approach, tread-wear rates from the automotive engineering literature were used in conjunction with vehicle ...
متن کاملLatex allergens in tire dust and airborne particles.
The prevalence and severity of latex allergy has increased dramatically in the last 15 years due to exposure to natural rubber products. Although historically this health risk has been elevated in hospital personnel and patients, a recent survey has indicated a significant potential risk for the general population. To obtain a wide-spread source for latex exposure, we have considered tire debri...
متن کاملCharacterization of heavy metal particles embedded in tire dust.
Tire dust is a significant pollutant, especially as a source of zinc in the urban environment. This study characterizes the morphology and chemical composition of heavy metal particles embedded in tire dust and traffic-related materials (brake dust, yellow paint, and tire tread) as measured by a field emission scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (F...
متن کاملWear Particles Surface Identification Using Neural Network
This paper investigates the analysis of microscopic particles generated by wear mechanisms using image processing techniques. Particles are classified using their visual and morphological attributes to predict wear failure in engines and other machinery. The paper describes the stages of identification processing involved including a neural network system to classify wear articles in terms of t...
