Can Old Tires Be Sold After Replacement?
1 Answers
Replaced old tires can be sold. Waste tires belong to scrap rubber, which generally does not decompose on its own, and indiscriminate disposal can have a significant environmental impact. When your vehicle's waste tires are replaced, please do not discard them carelessly. Waste tires can be sold to recycling shops or to tire repair professionals. Proper disposal of waste tires contributes to environmental protection. Methods for handling old tires: 1. Tire retreading: Tire retreading technology involves refurbishing worn or otherwise damaged tires to restore their usability. 2. Using catalysts to convert waste tires into oil: The technology for converting waste tires into oil involves heating and pressurizing waste tires to extract fuel. If simple and cheap equipment is used, this method can easily cause secondary pollution. 3. Rubber powder and reclaimed rubber from tires: This technology first involves crushing waste tires into 20~30 mesh rubber powder using specialized equipment, followed by desulfurization treatment to soften the rubber powder into malleable reclaimed rubber, which can then be reprocessed into various rubber products. If the desulfurization process is not up to standard, it can also cause pollution.
