Rubber Tire Environmentally Friendly Alternative to Track Oval Granules
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Materials Engineering
Abstract
With the increase in population, improvement in living standards, and expansion of both urban and rural areas, there has been a corresponding rise in the amount of waste generated. The adverse impact of solid and industrial wastes on the environment is a persistent concern for contemporary society, and it presents a potential hazard to future generations. Using recycling and upcycling methodologies for repurposing used tires is crucial in implementing circular economy practices. Hence, it is justifiable to enhance existing methods and explore novel approaches for the industrial use of discarded tires. This study aims to present innovative and feasible measures for waste management that prioritize sustainability and safety. The present study investigates the potential use of recycled rubber tire granules to construct rubberized track ovals. A comparative analysis of the characteristics of commercially available rubber granules and ground tire rubber accomplishes this. The compressibility and tensile properties of materials and the sustainable treatment or functionalization of waste tire rubber were considered significant. Emphasize the difficulties in utilizing waste tire rubber for potential construction and material applications.
