Waste tyres and their accumulation is a global environmental concern; they are not
biodegradable, and, globally, an estimated 1.5 billion are generated annually. Waste tyres in …

The tyre industry in Botswana produces and sells thousands of tyres annually generating
volumes of waste tyres which contribute towards the country's waste management …

Recycled tire rubber in mixtures with granular soils has been found recently applications in
many civil engineering projects. The paper presents a synthesis of the dynamic strain …

This study examines the small-strain dynamic properties of mixtures composed of sandy and
gravelly soils with granulated tire rubber in terms of shear modulus (GO), and damping ratio …

Processed tire wastes mixed with soils are applicable as lightweight fillers for slopes,
subbases of pavements and retaining walls that may be subjected to seismic loads, eg …

Mixtures of sand and rubber particles were simulated using DEM. Rubber content varied
from 0% to 50%. The numerical samples were sheared in the range of 10− 5–10− 2% of ε 1 …

The use of granulated scrap tires in mixtures with sand has been proposed the last years as
an alternative way to exploit the vast stockpiles of available scrap tires for the improvement …

Studies have shown that the incorporation of waste tire rubber aggregates reduces the
strength, increases permeability and decrease thermal conductivity of concrete. However …

We present the results of the forced-vibration experiments performed at the large-scale
prototype structure of EuroProteas founded on gravel-rubber mixture (GRM) layers acting as …

Pyrolysis is an attractive technology to convert low-cost carbonaceous waste materials into
fuels, energy and other value added products goods. During pyrolysis, the inorganic …
