While environmentalists have been citing concern over the issue of tyre recycling for decades, not much progress was made until recently. With environment-friendly goals on the agenda, the UAE government has now taken action for recycling large amounts of tyres that were previously dumped in landfills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we will learn more about tyre recycling in the UAE and why it is an important step.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Importance of Tyre Recycling <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rubber tyres are non-degradable due to vulcanization and antioxidants included in them. Therefore, either these tyres were landfilled or incinerated in open-air previously. Open incineration can release toxic gases and cancerous pollutants, therefore the process is not permissible by the UAE environmental law. Whereas, 75% of tyre dumping in open spaces requires large lands and it can also react with methane gas to produce a reactive mixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, car tyre recycling is the most suitable option. The UAE government has taken rapid actions against tyre recycling with an aim to reduce automotive carbon footprint<\/a> in the region. Currently, few of the largest tyre recycling plants in the world are operating in the UAE.     <\/p>\n\n\n\n
