Uptake and Effect of Cocktail of Tire Rubber Particle on Paddy
The global production of tire has reached over 19.25 million tonnes in 2019 and is projected to increase by 3.4% in 2024. Currently, there are over 1.47 billion automobiles on the roads. While driving, braking and accelerating the automobiles produce the Tire Were Particles (TWPs), and there are emitting 5.9 million tons/year tire particles in environments. The Crumb rubber (CR) generated form the playground and spores fields also contribute into environment. These tire rubber particles enter into the agriculture files through the various ways, such as road runoff and sludge form the wastewater treatment plants that use biosolids as fertilisers. Both TWR and CR contain a complex mixture of metals and chemical additives. Our research will explore the effect of both the particle forms and their leachate seep into paddy fields.
