Rubber is one of the materials that are widely used in industry and when they expire, they fall into the category of hazardous wastes. The release of rubber wastes into the environment causes many problems, including diseases, their bad landscape in nature, and terrible fires caused by their accumulation and environmental pollution. Also, rubber can be reused due to its non-degradability and elastic properties; as a result, the management of worn tires has a particular importance. There are several ways to manage rubber waste that can be safe and effective when done properly. These methods include sanitary landfilling, incineration, pyrolysis, milling, reuse at various scales, and re-coating. In this article, each method is reviewed and their advantages and disadvantages are stated. Also, there are examples of different applications of rubber waste in various industries.
