| Abstract: | Australia currently generates 56 million used tyres per annum, with only 10 percent of these used tyres being recycled and nearly 30 per cent exported for re-use. The rest are disposed to landfill, stockpiled, or illegally dumped. As a material, end-of-life tyres crumb rubber boasts a number of environmental benefits as a recycled product. These benefits are increasingly being realised across a number of industrial sectors, including our roads. |
