What are the uses of shredded tires

Contact Person:Mr.Zhao 0086-13523465141

Old tires are a serious environmental hazard if left alone, however, they are surprisingly helpful in their shredded form as they contribute to a greener environment through tire recycling. Once you put your waste rubber tires  into high-quality tire shredders, they will be transformed and reused in a variety of constructive ways.
 
Here are uses of shredded tires:

1. Rubberized Asphalt (Used in Roadway Construction)
 
This is when asphalt concrete is mixed with crumb rubber from old tires. Rubberized asphalt is rubber modified asphalt which weighs less than 15% of the total weight of regular asphalt cement. Rubberized asphalt is resilient, flexible and eco-friendly and is designed to reduce skid resistance, lower maintenance costs and improve performance, making it safer than traditional asphalt. Rubberized asphalt gives better night time visibility as well as reducing traffic noise by more than 5 decibels. The flexibility of the rubber slows down the aging and oxidation of the asphalt and prevents it from cracking up. Rubberized asphalt can be used wherever traditional asphalt concrete is normally used.
 
2. Construction and Building Materials
 
The U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) green building rating system awards points for eco-friendly construction features. Using recycled tire materials will help you promote and meet your eco-friendly building requirements. You can use recycled tire products in a lot of different categories according to the LEED points:
 
Regional Materials – To build your products and materials that are extracted and manufactured within 500 miles.
Recycled Content – You can use this to build materials that are made up of recycled content materials.
Stormwater Design – Helps in creating waterproof surfaces that lower the runoff.

3. Landfills
 
Tire shreds obtained from tire shredding can be used for various different purposes on landfill sites. You can create a protective layer of shredded tire chips over the landfill liner. You can also use them in the drainage layer in the landfill’s liner as well as in the gas vents. Tire shreds are also used in the leachate collection system that prevents the poisoning of our water sources and home water supplies.

4. Helps with Drainage
 
Shredded tire chips help a lot with drainage. The rubber chips are helpful in flood prone landfill areas as they allow the water to drain naturally into the ground without allowing it to become contaminated by the junk on the landfill. The rubber chips have to be shredded into 4 to 6 inch pieces for this to be effective.

What if the plastic shredder is blocked

Plastic shredder is specially designed to tear up plastics, building templates, wooden pallets and other waste wood, long time to tear up the work, there may be some problems. For example, in the process of production, fast feed, plastic shredder suddenly appeared blocked, what to do? Plastic shredder, congestion is more common problems are basically caused by not timely maintenance, regular cleaning, accumulate over a long period, can jam during production, not only affect the production, can also harm the plastic shredder. This is the reason why the plastic shredder is blocked. Plastic shredder failure requires you to pay attention to in time, if it is found that the shredding machine production, and the same raw material, check the damper is in place and pipes with and without air leakage, etc., the shredding machine jams are common faults, the possibility is there are four: 1: may be the body design problem; 2: the raw material is put in too fast; 3: it is the pipe of the discharg...

Start up and operation steps of dual shaft shredder

The industrial shredder expert explains the steps of starting the dual shaft shredder: 1. The starting motor of the dual shaft shredder operates under no load. If the technical conditions of each part are normal, it can only operate under load after the rotating speed is normal. 2. During the operation of the dual shaft shredder, there shall be no magnetic jamming and friction sound. 3. The screen shall be installed firmly, sealed, without leakage, and the screen frame shall be fixed tightly. 4. In case of abnormal noise, blocked discharge, overheated bearing or motor during the operation of the dual shaft shredder, stop feeding, stop inspection and troubleshooting. 5. At the end of the work, the crusher and fan can be stopped only after the materials in the machine are completely removed. 6. Safety production must be strictly guaranteed during operation. Do not increase the speed of the dual shaft shredder at will. Check the cotter pin on the pin shaft frequently. If it is excessivel...
