“…Used tires are placed into a preheating chamber (60-100°C), then fed into the reactor, and submitted to temperatures of 300-500°C and pressures of 1-1.2 atm. The resulting volatile hydrocarbons are removed and condensed, and the carbon residue is separated from the remaining metal [20,31].…”

Tires are complex materials manufactured from vulcanized rubber and various other reinforcing materials. One billion end-of-life tires (ELTs) are discarded annually, drawing attention from society. Options for their disposal include reuse, retreading, regeneration, co-processing, pyrolysis, and recycling; however, the ideal alternative has yet to be established. Life cycle assessment (LCA) has been used to quantify their impact and support the decision-making process, in order to determine the most beneficial alternative from an environmental standpoint. Scientific studies on LCA have been carried out on different continents, mainly Europe, Asia, and America. The aim of this chapter was to review studies on the life cycle assessment of end-of-life tire disposal. The main treatment and final destination options were reviewed as well as the most important limitations and aspects of the technologies studied. The most common form of disposal is recycling, with mechanical recycling for use in synthetic grass exhibiting the best environmental performance according to scientific research. Energy recovery also shows good performance, largely due to the emissions prevented through energy conversion. Co-processed and retreaded tires are regularly used for comparison but typically display poor environmental performance in relation to the first two alternatives.

“…Most of the previous SAPG studies were based on a single combination of configuration-operation. The initial studies on SAPG were focused on the SP configuration which SP is performed in accordance with the FWH of the power station [6][7]. Some other studies are based on the configuration of the SP in series with the FWH of the power plant [7][8].…”

This paper aims to investigate the effects the solar radiation on the cavity receiver for the Application in the Solar Power Generator (SPG). In order to perform work the solar power generator, high concentrated solar radiations are needed. thus, investigation of heat transfer of the cavity receiver is needed to conduct max usage of solar energy with min losing of heat for performance for the Solar Power Generator (SPG), in this research, Ansys software has been conducted to perform simulation process by using experimental results as a primary data for validation purpose. The experiments were conducted to find out the suitable aperture ration (AR = d/D) and aperture position (AP = H/D) of the cavity receiver (AR = 0.5 AP = 0.53). The results that done by simulation were confident 91% with the experiments results. The simulation process is conducted for solar radiation along the wall surface (H) of the receiver for different boundary conditions of the cavity receiver.

Scrap tires filled with granular materials can be used for geotechnical engineering. However, when subjected to earthquakes and other conditions, shear failure occurs between the tires. In this paper, eight groups of tire-sand composite columns are prepared and tested under shear strength tests. Different vertical forces, sand densities, and loading modes are considered to investigate the shear performance. The failure patterns, load-displacement curves, and stress-strain curves are observed. The results show that the shear failure of composite undergoes three typical stages: overall flexural lateral displacement, transverse compression, and relative interfacial slip. Under monotonic loading, the restriction of the transverse deformation of the composite column is enhanced with increasing vertical force. The overall antidisturbance ability of the composite is enhanced with increasing sand density. The cyclic loading mode can improve the lateral stiffness of the tire-sand composite. The relative motion between the tire-sand interfaces has two forms: elastic creep and interface sliding. Under the hoop effect of the tire, the pores between the particles produce a pseudocohesive force, which causes the shear strength of the tire-sand composite to be higher than that of common sand. A formula is obtained to describe the stress-strain variations in the composite under different vertical forces.
