Mitigating tire wear particles and tire additive chemicals in stormwater with permeable pavements

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment
6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ) is a recently discovered chemical that is acutely toxic to coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and can form via environmental exposure of 6PPD, a compound found extensively in tire wear particles (TWPs). TWPs deposited on roads are transported to aquatic ecosystems via stormwater, contributing to microplastic pollution and organic ...

Optimization of Asphalt Mix Improved by the Addition of Scrap Tires

open access: yesEngineering and Technology Journal, 2009
The design of improved asphalt mix is achieved by the use of three majorvariables , weight of scrap tires replaced by coarse base aggregate , particles size of scrap tires finally the weight of binder used (bitumen). The improved asphalt mix (IAM) requires a balance between rutresistance and durability to resist cracking and moisture damage (stripping)
