Recently, the develpment of waterproof techniques has been required in morden building field. It is undoubt that one of the best materials for waterproof is polyurethane. Polyurethanes have advantages such as good adhesive ability, durability, weatherproof. However, they have disadvantages like high cost, delicate varnish layer, swelling problem. In this study, we found that the polyurethane with rubber particle of waste tire can solve those problems. We concluded that 10% of rubber particles containing polyurethane was recommened as the waterproof materials.

In this study, the effect of reducing cement by proportional addition of waste powder rubber on the performance of concrete under impact three-point bending loading were investigated experimentally and numerically. Concrete specimens were prepared by adding 5%, 10% and 20 % of rubber powder as filler to the mix and decreasing the same percentage of cement. For each case, three beams of $50mm{\times}100mm{\times}500mm$ were loaded to failure in a drop-weight impact machine by subjecting them to 20 N weight from 300mm height, while another three similar beams were tested under static load. The bending load-displacement behavior was analyzed for the plain and rubberized specimens, under static and impact loads. A three dimensional finite-element method simulation was also performed by using LUSAS V.14 in order to study the impact load-displacement behavior, and the predictions were validated with the experimental results. It was observed that, despite decreasing the cement content, the proportional addition of powder rubber until 10% could yield enhancements in impact tup, inertial load and bending load.

폐타이어고무분말을 재활용하기 위하여 방수시트용 고무분말 복합체를 제조하였으며, 수지 종류와 가교제의 함량이 복합체의 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. EPDM이 부가됨에 따라 고무분말 PE 복합체의 신장율이 3배 이상 증가하는 현상을 나타내었다. 고무분말 충전 복합체에 가교제의 농도가 증가함에 따라 복합체의 강도가 증가하였으며, 특히 재생 폴리프로필렌을 사용한 경우 3배 이상 인장강도가 현저하게 높게 나타났다. 따라서 폴리프로필렌 블렌드물로 고무분말 복합체를 제조하는 경우 신재 폴리프로필렌을 사용하는 것 보다 재생 폴리프로필렌을 사용하는 것이 기계적 특성면에서 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 폐타이어 재활용을 위하여 수행된 전처리 공정이 재생 고무분말의 기계적 물성에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 분쇄 및 탈황공정을 통하여 생산된 폐타이어 고무분말을 재가황한 후 인장시험, 충격시험 및 파단면 관찰을 수행하였다. 분쇄 공정을 거쳐서 생산된 고무분말은 입자크기가 작아질수록 그 표면적이 증가되며 인장강도와 연신율이 모두 증가되었다. 반면에 탈황공정을 거친 고무분말은 내부에 존재하는 황과의 가교결합이 줄어들어서 이후의 가황처리 후에도 인장강도와 연신율이 모두 증가되었다. 따라서 폐타이어 재활용을 위한 전처리 공정은 재활용 분말을 일정크기로 분쇄한 후 탈황공정까지를 수행한 고무분말을 제조하는 것이 단순 분쇄공정만을 거친 재활용 고무분말에 비하여 가황 시에 연신율을 보다 효율적으로 증가시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 폐어망 보강형식에 따른 폐타이어-저회 혼합토의 전단특성을 고찰하였다. 실험에 사용된 혼합토는 폐타이어(분말입경 2mm~10mm)와 저회를 동일한 무게비로 구성하였으며, 준비된 혼합토에 폐어망 보강 시 층수와 겹수를 달리하여 보강함으로써 5종류의 시편(무보강 혼합토, 1층 혹은 2층 보강 혼합토, 2겹 1층 혹은 2층 보강 혼합토)이 만들어졌다. 직접전단시험을 수행한 결과 폐어망 보강 혼합토의 역학적 특성은 폐어망 보강 층수와 보강 겹수에 크게 의존하는 것을 알 수 있다. 폐어망 보강 층수와 보강 겹수가 증가함에 따라 혼합토의 전단강도와 내부마찰각은 증가한다. 이것은 보강된 폐어망과 혼합토 입자간의 마찰 및 억물림 효과에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.

The growing quantity of tires and building trash piling up in landfills poses a serious threat to the stability of the ecosystem. Researchers are exploring ways to reduce and use such byproducts of the construction industry in an effort to promote greener building practices. Thus, using recycled crumb rubber from scrap tires in concrete manufacturing is important for the industry's long-term viability. This study examines the proportion of waste rubber in fiber form, specifically at weight percentages of 5%, 10%, and 15%. Moreover, the study examines the shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams. A total of twelve RC beam specimens, each sized 100 mm by 150 mm by 1000 mm (w × d × L), were constructed and positioned to the test. Various mixtures were designed with different levels of scrap tire rubber content (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) and Stirrup Vol. Ratio (2.10, 2.80, and 3.53) in reinforced concrete beams. The findings indicate that the inclusion of scrap rubber in concrete leads to a decrease in both the mechanical characteristics and weight of the material. This is mostly attributed to the lower strength and stiffness of the rubberized concrete. Furthermore, estimations generated by a variety of design codes were examined alongside the obtained data. In order to make a comparison between the estimates provided by the different codes such as ACI 318-14, CEB-FIB and Iranian national building codes, a calculation was done to determine the ratio of the experimental shear strength to the anticipated shear strength for each code.

The asphalt mixture with CRM(Crumb Rubber Modifier) is known to show a better performance in resisting thermal cracking, fatigue cracking and rutting compared with the conventional mixture. The laboratory tests on the physical characteristics of indirect tensile strength, density, flow and Marshall value of the CRM asphalt were conducted. The test results show that CRM asphalt has better physical characteristics than that of conventional asphalts. And the analysis on the noise reduction effect, penetration capacity from the field test on the national road in Haksan of Chungbuk, and recycling of tire waste were conducted. From this study, the results show that 1% CRM asphalt has higher the noise reduction effect and penetration capacity that those of conventional asphalts. And, optimal contents of crumb rubber modifier in the asphalt binder is one percent. In this case, crumb rubber modifier were used 10 kg to make the asphalt binder of one cubic meter. So it was named as Eco-asphalt.

As a result of technical advances and industrialization, the characteristics of domestic and industrial wastes are becoming more complex. Accordingly, improved treatment and disposal systems are being continuously sought to take account of complex characteristics and to comply with economic restrictions. In this study, an application of pyrolysis to the treatment of industrial wastes, including waste scrap rubber, waste raw material used in making the slipper bottom and waste PVC pipe, and the effectiveness of pyrolysis in resource recovery from these wastes were investigated. Batches of wastes were pyrolysed by external heating to a temperature of 400-800$\circ$C in a 32 mm diameter x 0.9 m long silica tube to produce combustible gases, oils and chars. Before the start of pyrolysis runs, the entire system was purged with nitrogen gas to exclude the air. The temperature inside the retort was controlled by the thermocouple in the gas stream, and referred to as the pyrolysis temperature. Under these conditions three products were separately collected and further analyzed. The results were summarized as follows. 1. More gases and less chars were produced with higher pyrolyzing temperature and with higher rates of heating, but the yields of oils tended downwards at temperatures above 700$\circ$C. Accordingly, operating conditions of pyrolysis should be varied with desired material. 2. Calorific values and sulfur contents of produced oils were sufficient and suitable for fuel use. Chars from waste rubber had high heating values with low sulfur contents, but calorific values of chars from waste PVC and waste slipper were as low as 3, 065-4, 273 kcal/kg and 942-2, 545 kcal/kg, respectively. Therefore, char from these wastes are inappropriate for fuel. 3. Soluble contents of Pb, Cd, Cu and Zn in chars from waste rubber and waste slipper were below the Specific Hazardous Waste Treatment Standards. However soluble contents of Pb and Cd in chars from waste PVC were one or two times and five or seven times exceedingly the Specific Hazardous Waste Treatment Standards, respectively. 4. Post high heating is desirable for treatment method of waste PVC which generates toxic hydrogen chloride. 5. The proportions of hydrogen, methane and ethane in produced gases were in the range of 3.99-35.61% V/V, 18.22-32.50% V/V and 5.17-5.87% V/V, respectively. 6. Pyrolysis is a useful disposal method in case of waste slipper, which was hardly combustible, and thus investigations of this kind of materials are required for effective management of industrial waste. 7. Based upon the possible market development for products, overall pyroly economics to take account of treatment values of noncombustible or hazardous materials should be evaluated.

This study aimed to categorize pervious rubberized concrete into fresh and hardened concrete analyzing its durability, permeability and strength. During the globalization of modern life, growing population and industry rate have signified a sustainable approach to all aspects of modern life. In recent years, pervious concrete (porous concrete) has significantly substituted for pavements due to its mechanical and environmental properties. On the other hand, scrap rubber tire has been also contributed with several disposal challenges. Considering the huge amount of annually tire wastes tossing out, the conditions become worse. Pervious concrete (PC) gap has graded surface assisted with storm water management, recharging groundwater sources and alleviate water run-offs. The results have shown that the use of waste tires as aggregate built into pervious concrete has tremendously reduced the scrap tire wastes enhancing environmental compliance.
