ABSTRACT The Ilwaco tire fire oil spill occurred when oil generated by the pyrolysis of rubber tire chips began seeping from a hillside into an adjacent coastal wetland. The tire chips were used as road fill material to repair a section of State Route 100 damaged by a landslide. This paper discusses not only the complexities of the response to the oil spill, but also the elaborate cofferdam system and containment berm constructed to control and contain the continual flow of oil from the site until mitigation measures could be taken to eliminate the source. Because exposure to oxygen could potentially increase the risk of a tire fire, several in-situ cooling methods were evaluated. The unique properties of this oil, the environmental effects and restoration concerns, the excavation methods, and disposal problems are all discussed. This is one of two sites in the state of Washington where a road fill, constructed of shredded tire chips, has begun burning. A comparison between these two sites, along with some assumptions as to the causes and possible preventative measures, will be briefly discussed.

Strength And Deformation

The volume of scrap tires, an undesired urban waste, is increasing every year. One of the possible alternatives for this waste is to use shredded tires alone or mixed with soil as a lightweight backfill. This paper presents the results of triaxial tests on compacted shredded rubber tire – sand mixtures. The tests were carried out with different mixing ratios of shredded rubber tires and sand. With an increasing proportion of sand in the mixture, the density, unit weight, and shear strength of the mixture increased, but the compressibility decreased. The dilatancy characteristics of shredded rubber tires mixed sand were relatively similar to a cohesionless material and can be explained within a critical state framework. A proposed constitutive model broadly captures the strength and deformation characteristics of a shredded rubber tire – sand mixture at different mixing ratios.Key words: shredded rubber tires, triaxial testing, constitutive model.

Abstract Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Dart's Gold’, Forsythia x ‘Meadowlark’, Spiraea x billiardii, Juniperus chinensis ‘Seagreen’, J. sabina ‘Mini Arcade’, J. horizontalis ‘Hughes’, and Lamiastrum galeobdolon were grown in container media amended with three yard waste (YW) composts, one municipal solid waste (MSW) compost and shredded rubber tire chips. Each of the five amendments was used to replace 50% or 100% of the sphagnum peat in a standard container medium resulting in eleven media treatments. Effects of peat replacement with compost or tire chips were compared relative to chemical and physical media characteristics. Amendments evaluated had limited long term nutritional value. Initial pH was increased when peat was replaced with compost or rubber tire chips; the increase in pH was proportional to the amount of peat replaced (50 or 100%). Over time, pH of all media equilibrated with irrigation water pH. Soluble salts were reduced for media amended with rubber tire chips while peat replacement with compost had variable effects on soluble salt levels based on compost source. Media amended with compost exhibited increased bulk density and decreased porosity, water infiltration capacity and water holding capacity compared to the standard, peat-based control medium. Peat replacement with rubber tire chips increased bulk density and porosity and decreased water holding capacity compared to the standard control medium. Water infiltration capacity was greatly increased and water holding capacity decreased when peat was replaced 100% with rubber tire chips.

Abstract This research investigated the feasibility of using composted yard wastes, composted municipal solid waste and shredded rubber tire chips in nursery container media. Containerized Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Dart's Gold’, Forsythia × ‘Meadowlark’, Spiraea × billiardii, Juniperus chinensis ‘Seagreen’, J. sabina ‘Mini Arcade’, J. horizontalis ‘Hughes’, and Lamiastrum galeobdolon were grown in media amended with five recycled waste materials used as peat substitutes in a standard container medium of composted woodchips, peat, and sand (3:2:1 by vol). Waste materials used included three yard waste composts, one municipal solid waste compost and shredded rubber tire chips. Fifty or 100% of the peat in the standard growing medium was replaced with each amendment. Ten treatments (five amendments, each at 50% and 100% peat replacement) and a control (standard medium) were used for all seven plant species. Visual ratings, height and width measurements (crown volume), number of growing points and plant dry weights indicated that media in which 50% of the peat was replaced by an amendment produced larger plants of superior quality compared to the control. Rubber tire chips were acceptable as a 50% peat substitute for plants that prefer well-drained conditions, while 100% peat substitution with tire chips was detrimental to plant growth and performance. Use of immature compost in container media negatively influenced plant growth.
