The potential utilization of the rubber material after waste tire recycling

摘要

This article describes the method of production of rubber granulate after the recycling of waste tires and the potential utilization of this material. The aim of this study was the utilization of rubber in the building industry, especially the use of granulate as rubber filler in concrete. It has been found that the use of rubber granulate as a substitute for natural aggregates in a concrete mix has a significant impact on the properties of concrete. Although studies on the utilization of rubber granulate in a concrete mix have been conducted in different sectors and in different research areas, it is clear that we do not know much about it yet. That is why it is necessary to continue and to obtain more information about the properties of concrete based on recycled rubber.
