Waste tires (WT) are known as" black pollution", and their quantity is growing year by year.
The rational disposal of WT has become an urgent problem. Pyrolysis is an economical …

Significant high levels of available waste tires in Brazil, which reached approximately 473
thousand tons in 2015, offer an attractive potential for their use as fuel in advanced thermal …

The surface modification of powdered tire rubber to increase its adhesion to cement paste
was studied. The particles were surface-treated with NaOH saturated aqueous solutions for …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) emitted from fluidized bed combustion have been
reviewed. Firstly, the PAH origin is undertaken. Secondly, the state of the art on their …

A test program was carried out to develop information about the mechanical properties of
rubberized concretes with and without silica fume. Two types of tire rubber, crumb rubber …

A fundamental investigation has been conducted on the combustion of single particles of a
bituminous coal (45–53, 75–90, and 150–180 μm), of a lignite coal (45–53 and 75–90 μm) …

Biomass oxidative pyrolysis is of great interest from the point of view of large-scale bio-oil
production in autothermal regime. A study has been carried out in thermobalance with …

Shredded automobile tyres were pyrolysed in an N2 atmosphere. The compositions and
properties of the different fractions were determined over a range of temperatures (350–700° …

Incineration methods are becoming increasingly important from the view point of the need to
minimize the environmental impact of waste tyre disposal. Combustion of waste tyre, one …

Comparative combustion studies were performed on particles of pulverized coal samples
from three different ranks: a high-volatile bituminous coal, a sub-bituminous coal, and two …
