Fuel Value and Incineration

Agitation, which is a very important design feature in any tire-burning incinerator, is usually accomplished by using a moving or rotating chamber. 

However, it is believed that incineration of strap tires is not the most desirable long-run approach when the total natural resource situation is considered. Scrap tires, a discarded resource rich in hydrocarbons, should be returned to the production cycle as useful materials, such as reclaim, reinforcing carbon black, and carbon compounds that could be chemical feed stocks. This last approach would conserve gas and oil reserves.
