  • Microbial Degradation of Rubber: Actinobacteria

Natural rubber undergoes chemical processes and structural modifications, while synthetic rubber, mainly synthetized from petroleum by-products are difficult to degrade safely and sustainably. The most prominent group of biological rubber degraders are Actinobacteria. Rubber degrading Actinobacteria contain rubber degrading genes or rubber oxygenase known as latex clearing protein (lcp). Rubber is a polymer consisting of isoprene, each containing one double bond. The degradation of rubber first takes place when lcp enzyme cleaves the isoprene double bond, breaking them down into the sole carbon and energy source to be utilized by the bacteria. Actinobacteria grow in diverse environments, and lcp gene containing strains have been detected from various sources including soil, water, human, animal, and plant samples. This review entails the occurrence, physiology, biochemistry, and molecular characteristics of Actinobacteria with respect to its rubber degrading ability, and discusses possible technological applications based on the activity of Actinobacteria for treating rubber waste in a more environmentally responsible manner.

Concrete consists of Cement, fine aggregates, Gravels, Water, Admixtures. In this II. LITERATURE REVIEW research work partial replacement of sand is done by Kota stone Dust and crumbed rubber in different percentages (0%, 5%, 10%, 15% & 20%) in concrete. Ki sang son et al [1] investigate the reinforced concrete column with waste tyre rubber particles of different sizes and Kota stone dust is waste product obtained by Kota stone percentages by considering the concrete compressive strength quarries while placingkota stone. A large amount of waste is 24mpa and 28mpa to examine the concrete properties. In this produced by such quarries only small quantity is used and rest is dumped . This can be used as replacement of fine aggregate. study 600 µ to 1 mm size of rubber particle was used. 27 control specimen were prepared, the result indicated that the Crumb rubber is recycled rubber produced from automotive rubber filled RC column gives slightly lower compressive and truck scrap tires. Rubber pollution involves the strength andmodulus of elasticity . But energy absorption accumulation of plastic products in the environment that capacity and ductility increases.

  • Artificial Turf Infill: a Comparative Assessment of Chemical Contents
    Feature NEW SOLUTIONS: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Artificial Turf Infill: A Comparative Health Policy 2020, Vol. 30(1) 10–26 Assessment of Chemical Contents ! The Author(s) 2020 Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions DOI: 10.1177/1048291120906206 journals.sagepub.com/home/new Rachel Massey1 , Lindsey Pollard1, Molly Jacobs2, Joy Onasch1, and Homero Harari3 Abstract Concerns have been raised regarding toxic chemicals found in tire crumb used as infill in artificial turf and other play surfaces. A hazard-based analysis was conducted, comparing tire crumb with other materials marketed as alternative infills. These include other synthetic polymers as well as plant- and mineral-based materials. The comparison focused on the presence, absence, number, and concentration of chemicals of concern. No infill material was clearly free of concerns, but several are likely to be somewhat safer than tire crumb. Some alternative materials contain some of the same chemicals of concern as those found in tire crumb; however, they may contain a smaller number of these chemicals, and the chemicals may be present in lower quantities. Communities making choices about playing surfaces are encouraged to examine the full range of options, including the option of organically managed natural grass. Keywords artificial turf, recycled tires, tire crumb, hazard assessment, toxics use reduction Introduction All artificial turf fields pose a number of concerns, Artificial turf fields have been installed widely in the including high temperatures, loss of green space, and United States and elsewhere. Most of these fields are migration of infill particles and particles of synthetic constructed with infill made from waste tires (tire grass fibers into surrounding soil and water.3,4 High crumb).
