Microstructure properties of waste tire rubber composites: an overview

Journal of Material Cycles and Waste Management, 2014
More than 1.5 billion tires are produced worldwide per year. This causes environmental pollution in the nature. Studies have shown that scrap tire rubbers can be used as aggregates in concrete mixtures and as modifiers in bituminous composites. Various studies were conducted for this reason and reported in the literature.

Toward the Utilization of Char from the Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Polyethylene Plastic Waste: Studies of the Adsorption of Rhodamine B in an Aqueous Environment

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
Hydrothermal liquefaction of waste polyethylene produces char that effectively removes rhodamine B from water. Nearly complete dye adsorption is achieved under optimum conditions, with adsorption following Langmuir isotherm and pseudo‐first‐order kinetics.

Watershed land cover predicts the abundance of macroplastic and other anthropogenic litter in streams

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
Macroplastic and other types of macroscopic anthropogenic litter (AL; trash, particles > 5 mm) are pervasive across ecosystems, persistent in the environment, increasing in abundance, and can degrade into microplastics (particles < 5 mm). Rivers retain and transform AL prior to export downstream, but improved predictions of AL distribution and movement

Processing and optimization of pla/rubber blends based on waste tire rubber and natural rubber

, 2021
To face the problem of plastic wastes generation and to participate in the development of a circular economy of the rubber industry, the design of materials incorporating waste ground tire rubber (GTR) to toughen the Polylactic Acid (PLA), a brittle biobased thermoplastic, has been proposed. The compatibility between these two polymers was optimized by
