Discarded tires, the laying of a new environmentally friendly highway

With the development of China's automobile industry, every year, out of 100,000,000 discarded tires, not only take up much of the land, but also serious pollution. Recently, Nankai University to develop the "recycling of discarded tires," the new method can be extremely difficult to deal with the "rubbish" waste to Bao.

It is reported that every 6000 powder made from discarded tires to lay 1 km high-grade two-way road, the cost savings of 40%.

And the old-modified asphalt, with discarded tires laying rubber modified asphalt road surface has a strong effect of high temperature. In addition, its lower noise, extension of the life of the road, the road to reduce maintenance costs, dimming, water fog, and so on, as well as to improve traffic safety has also shown a significant advantage.

In addition to laying the road, tire rubber powder can also be used as various types of water-proof materials, rubber and rubber products, as well as runway and other production materials. As the powder produced by mechanical milling, the production process does not waste water and exhaust gas emissions, the new environmental protection industry, and has broad prospects for development.

At present, with the Nankai University in Tianjin Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd. Haitai environmental co-operation was set up collection industry, academia, research in one of the "recycling of discarded tires and development centers." In the near future, in order to discarded tires for the raw materials of the highway barrier, rubber floor tiles, waterproofing membrane, and other rubber products will be released one after another.
