Resumen
The percentage of contamination caused by tires is evident due to the large number of circulating vehicles and low recycling options, which is why, through an exploratory investigation and joint sampling, this project focused on analyzing the impact environmental caused by the inappropriate manufacture and design of tires, revealing the current levels of contamination in the city of Babahoyo and proposing new ways to take advantage of tire rubber before its final disposal.
After knowing the current modalities for the treatment of post-use tires in vehicles, a methodology was developed to take advantage of it through the manufacture of concrete blocks with rubber chips, which consists of separating the structure of the rims composed of wire, fabrics and rubber threads; to disintegrate the last component into tiny pieces and turn it into rubber gravel, which will be used within the mixture of manufacturing materials of the common blocks of the market, give it a more conscious turn and turn them into blocks with recycled material.
