Black Treasure

Idea Description

Black Treasure "Tire Recycling" Damaged and unused tires represent a big problem because they are not biodegradable. In addition, disposal processes such as burning or burial cause pollution to the environment. Therefore, this step contributes to reducing environmental pollution. The recycling of damaged tires is done safely. The idea is to deal with tires. used and damaged products by converting them into marketable and environmentally friendly products in a modern way to achieve the principle of sustainability and preservation of the environment and work to obtain recycled products that are environmentally friendly, rubber, safe, and easy to use.

Some recycling products: 1. It is used to cover the floors of industrial stadiums "artificial turf". 2. It is used in construction projects, insulation and floors of buildings 3. Brake lining industry by 40% 4. As an anti-shock, anti-skid and public safety 5. It is used in the manufacture of rubber tiles that are used in gardens and children's play areas.

Challenges The Idea is Addressing

The process of disposing of tires traditionally affects the ozone layer and public health as a result of the emission of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide. It also causes damage to the water environment as it leads to thermal decomposition that produces toxic compounds that seep into the groundwater.

Benefits of Idea Implementation

1. Reducing environmental pollution resulting from traditional disposal processes. 2. Reducing waste. 3. Recycling is important and is adding a new value to the material and exploiting the tires. 4. Reducing the amount of energy use, as the energy required for recycling is less.
