                 Tire Pile Problems
   • Tires cause 
      health 
      problems 
      (mosquitoes)
   • Can catch fire
   • Expensive to 
      get rid of
                                
          Tire Derived Fuel – US EPA
   General Information
   •
    In 2003: 130 million scrap tires used as fuel (45% of amount generated)
   •
    Shredded or whole tires used
   Claimed Advantages
   •
    Tires produce the same amount of energy as oil and 25% more energy than coal
   •
    The ash residues from TDF may contain a lower heavy metals content than some 
   coals.
   •
    Results in lower NOx emissions when compared to many U.S. coals, particularly 
   the high-sulfur coals.
   EPA
   •
    The Agency supports the responsible use of tires in Portland cement kilns and 
   other industrial facilities
                                 
            Tire Incineration in U.S.
     • 52% of U.S. scrap tires are burned
