dc.descriptionThis compendium describes, the environmental soundly way to recover materials and energy from waste tyres. General and specific technologies for the recovery of materials/energy from waste tyres are introduced to the target audience. In terms of recovery of materials, ground rubber, metal and devulcanised rubber could be recovered through different technologies including tyre derived aggregates (TDA) as products. For recovery of energy, there are technologies for direct use as a fuel, conversion to conventional type fuel and recycling waste tyres in steel production. Detailed process description, environmental and social aspects, investment and operating costs, institutional and regulatory requirement, pros and cons with respect to developing countries have been discussed. Further specific technologies present, a brief introduction of the technologies, mainly shredding and pyrolysis technologies are discussed.en_US
