The incorporation of waste rubber into concrete has significant environmental value.
However, a hydrophobic waste rubber surface results in poor adhesion to concrete, which …

Recycling of waste polymers for valuable use is important for circular economy and
environmental sustainability. This study introduces a novel approach to evaluating the …

In contrast to “white pollution” originating from waste plastics, waste rubber is often referred
to as “black pollution.” The quantity and variety of waste rubber are increasing at an …

This research presents a sustainable solution to waste tire disposal and raw material
depletion by incorporating recycled rubber into concrete mixtures. To mitigate the reduction …

This paper presents a thorough literature review on devulcanization methods applied to
waste tire rubber:“microwave devulcanization” and “biological desulfurization”. To do so, 80 …

This study investigates the valorization of two industrial waste streams-nitrile butadiene
rubber (NBR) scraps and electric arc furnace (EAF) slag–in the development of recycled …

Provides a comprehensive overview of rubber tyre types and their diverse applications.
Furthermore, the chapter addresses the critical issue of waste rubber tyres, exploring the …

The development of new environmentally friendly construction materials that incorporate
waste as an alternative to traditional raw materials is becoming increasingly important and …

In this work, ground tire rubber (GTR) was thermo-mechanically treated in the presence of
styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) copolymers. During preliminary investigation, the effects of …

This study presents the use of rubber grids (RGs) fabricated from end-of-life conveyor belts
(ie discarded from the mining industry) to improve the performance of ballast tracks. The …
