Abstract

Establishing rational system for waste tyre management in Bosnia and Herzegovina would represent significant contribution to environmental protection and usage of alternate energy sources. Waste tyres represent valuable raw material which can be recycled by mechanical and thermal processes. In European Union 80% of all produced waste tyres are used as secondary raw material in cement industry and pyrolysis processes. In this paper are given basic parameters of waste tyres energy potential and possibility of their usage as secondary raw materials.
