Waste tyres and their accumulation is a global environmental concern; they are not biodegradable, and, globally, an estimated 1.5 billion generated annually. Every year around 350,000 tons of end-of-life (ELT) managed in Italy, collected from cars, two-wheeled vehicles, trucks, up to large quarry vehicles agricultural vehicles. ELTs sent for material or energy recovery, line with the circular e...

Tests have been carried out to evaluate the performance, emission, and combustion characteristics of a single cylinder direct injection diesel engine fueled with 10%, 30%, and 50% of tyre pyrolysis oil (TPO) blended with diesel fuel (DF). The TPO was derived from waste automobile tyres through vacuum pyrolysis. The combustion parameters such as heat release rate, cylinder peak pressure, and max...

Abstract The production of tyres is one the most energy consuming manufacturing activities in rubber sector. In cycle a tyre, curing operation has maximum loss. This mostly due to extensive use steam as source heat and pressure vulcanization process. To author’s knowledge, no scientific work available literature where efficiency tyre press estimated by means comprehensive model all main compone...

Mashhad city is located on alluvial deposits where the expanded area of this city, especially the central and eastern areas surrounding Imam Reza holy shrine, are built on weak and fine-grained deposits. Therefore, the soil improvement would be inevitable due to construction of high-rise buildings such as hotels and commercial complexes in these areas, as well as restructuring old buildin...

The used tyre rubber, scrap ceramic tiles and wood dust are largely dumped into landfills, which create environmental pollution to the surrounding. recycling of rubber is very limited, but it has good property absorb impact energy. Hence, these materials prepare composite in present work. Composite were prepared by resin transfer moulding method with different weight percentage particles. tensi...

Waste latex sludge from centrifuged residue, which is a null by-product of concentrated latex manufacturing, was digested to retrieve the rubber by using sulfuric acid. It was found that the acid concentration and digestion time have an effect on the amount and purity of the retrieved rubber. Sulfuric acid at concentrations of more than 10% by weight with a digestion time of 48 hours completely...
