Description: Waste or scrap tires have posed a significant waste management challenge in recent decades. Landfilling and stockpiling have serious negative environmental impacts. The use of waste tires as an alternative fuel in cement manufacturing has proven to be a successful technology, both in reducing landfilling and by providing an extremely efficient energy source for cement plants. The nearly 200 references in this new 9-page PCA Library Bibliography underscore the widespread interest in and success of this technology. Citations represent research, industry surveys, and case studies as found in searches of the PCA Library collection as well as many electronic sources including EiCompendex, Chemical Abstracts, U.S. Department of Energy, and Rubber & Plastics Research Abstracts. Included are reports, patents, journal articles, and conference papers, with an emphasis on the most recent 10 years.
