Eco India: How can India deal with its mounting tyre waste?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 апр 2024
- As the third largest car market in the world, India also has growing tire waste. While manufacturers and importers will have to recycle all of their end-of-life tires as of 2025, there are calls on the government to support green technologies.

Waste to wealth is the only idea to reduce pollution in India
Recycling is the only solution.
We can easily make money and reduce waste.
You are right
1 problem with this all the rubber will flake off as microplastices wich will wash off the road with the rain.
So now not only will the tires make the microplastices but the road will now too increasing the amount in the environment over all.
We should use natural rubber like the old days yes every 20 to 30k miles will need replacement but it's 30 to 50k for the tires in this video so it's not a big loss and it can reduce the problem a bit too.
If we had a robust Public transport, a lot of this wastage could've been avoided in the first place. Recycling is good, but you can recycle a certain product / element only a few times. After that, you have to discard it. The end product of a completely wasted tyre is on the road along with tarmac. After that everything gets discarded.
Pollution is not a simple problem. Recycling will contribute to more of it. It is a national issue.
How To Live In Harmony With Nature And Reduce Pollution
1. Many Production Which We Do Not Need Actually For Human Beings Has To Be Stopped
We manufacture so many products and it is creating pollution. So if we minimise our products, pollution would be less.
We produce so many things which we do not need, like cold drinks, leather products, potato wafers, chips, fruit juices, chocolates, biscuits, pickles, ice creams, etc.
Cold drinks, fruit juices, pickles, ice creams, etc. Should be cooked at home only.
If we stopped producing this things which are not required for humans, so much pollution could be reduced.
If we colour the clothes pollution occurs. So if we don't colour our clothes, the pollution resulting from colouring the clothes can be stopped. Let everything remain in natural colour.
2. We Should Cook Foods In Its Natural Form
We can cook rice and wheat in our homes and eat it. Rice and Wheat is produced in farms. Then it is packed and transported to big warehouses, then wholesalers buy from them and supply to retail shops.
But if a manufacturing company makes bread from rice and wheat, then to make bread a manufacturing company has to be set up, machines and working staffs are needed. When a company is built many other things are also needed. Then at last a plastic pack is required to pack the breads.
So if we start cooking eatable things in its natural form then we do not need many companies like bread manufacturing company, tomato ketchup, noodles, fruit jam, pizza, burger, etc., the things required for the company and the plastic pack, paper box pack and glass bottles. If done like this, so many companies will not be required and hence less pollution for the world.
Also we could save our money like this. If you buy a packet of bread, it would cost you more money than if you cook wheat and rice in home.
Previously before industrial revolution, we didn't have technology, but our foods were rich with nutrients. Now we have technology, but technology is polluting our foods and our foods are not rich with nutrients, and because of that also we have health problems.
If this is done, then many jobs would be lost. For that many peoples should do farming and they should be given loans if they do not have enough money to start farming on their own.
Food, Medicines, Surgeries and Education's should be made free to the world till the world settles down with farming. After that food, medicines, surgeries and education's should be stopped free to the world.
Many people should study botany subject so that they have knowledge of plants and they should do farming.
Is their any another solution, that humans won't lose jobs and also pollution would decrease. Humans have to take this step certainly instead of going on polluting the earth, making wildlife extinct and also mass extinctions of humans in future.
3. Electricity Pollution
We create electricity from many types of sources like coal, water, etc., but it creates pollution. If electricity created from windmill and solar energy then no pollution occurs in the creation process. But still to manufacture windmill and solar machines pollution would occur.
As I previously said that if we shut down many manufacturing companies which are producing things which are not needed for humans, then the world would not require so much electricity. If less electricity required, then less pollution generated.
4. Could We Stop Drinking Cow's and Buffalo's Milk
Whatever vitamins and nutrients we get from milk, if we can get it from other eatable things, then we can stop drinking cow's and buffalo's milk. As milk has to be packed in glass bottles and plastic packs and then transported to places. All of this can be stopped.
For infants whose mother's have died or mother's who cannot breast feed their infants, only for them cow's and buffalo's milk should be given. We use milk in tea and coffee. Instead of milk we must use coconut milk with tea.
5. How Much Should Be The World's Population
Every place should have a single house. No buildings, everything ground floor. If we do this and the whole lands of our planet earth would be occupied one day with homes, farms, forests, schools, hospitals, etc., then we would come to know how much our planet earth can have maximum population.
Once the population is determined, then we have to maintain that population. For example if our earth can have a population of 10 billion peoples, then when the population reaches 10 billion, then everyone should have only one child till the population reaches 9 billion peoples. As if we have only one child then the population decreases. When population is 9 billion peoples, then everyone should have 2 children's till the population reaches 10 billion peoples. After that again we should have only one child. In this way population can be maintained.
When 54% of Pyrolysis units are not following proper environmental guidelines, Pollution control board should take stringent measures to safeguard environment.
Absolutely, but these pollution boards and food safety bodies are sadly of no use in India!
They are corrupt to the core and lazy at the same time or else they can do much more and are capable of doing much more.
It can be used as a substitute for asphalt to pave the streets and highways.
Yeah what a dumb idea. First indian government used plastic to pave roads and now rubber 😂😂😂
Yeah please I'd love more mircoplastic in soil and underground water
@@darkodonnie2729 You sound stupid, what do think makes up Asplat that's used to pave roads.
Very informative..👏🏻
As always Scroll & DW is presenting valuable contents, way ahead of others in quality ..👍🏻
The company owner vs the worker barefoot. Shameful
The FastOx gasifier technology by Sierra Energy is a simple, elegant solution for tyre disposal that’s been around for a decade now. It’s essentially a repurposed blast furnace of the kind commonly used in the steel industry.
Cement industry uses shredded tyres as alternate fuel in place of coal. They can also be used in incinerators that burn waste to produce electricity from the heat generated due to tyres combustion
They say friction on tyres will reduce, will that effect braking /while driving on wet roads made with rubber mixed asphalt?
using scrap tyres for making roads seems to be more environmentally friendly than pyrolysis. Yes as explained Indian government shall subsidies the process of scraped tyre shredding.
Thanks for making this video.
It's admirable to se the innovation going into it especially given the quantity of end of life tyres includes from u.k & other western 1st world countries that pay India to take their plastics incl old tyres. Saw a docu from USA on a civil engineer who designed a way to build roads using old tyres tied together then filled with sand & tarred. The old tyres have everything built in for shock absorbtion. It has wired steel covered by rubber so there's no alteration or energy intensity factor in such a process & given India's propensity towards earthquakes it's ideal & what can't be used is then sent to be broken down. Rubber is also carbon based so if it's broken down & added into minerals that certain plants feed off it will hold that carbon beneath the earth to help with lower emissions.

India govt should increase car prices by 50% so only rich people can buy cars. Also ban cars which are more than 5 years old. Only with these measures, we can surely save environment and keep greta thunderbird and others happy.
Brother It is sarcasm or solution 😅
Gawar villegers after selling there land are buying cars
You could not earn enough to own a car, so don't be frustrated and defer others from owning one please.
Bullshit
We already pay 50-250% extra for cars in India. If car price is increased further we will just get more cheap and unsafe vehicles on the road.
Thanks dear.
Great Idea
बहुत ही अच्छा लगा आपका information,
Napier grass से biocng पर भी एक informative videos बनाए।
Importing waste tyres is also a big threat for our environment, need to stop this immediately
There is nothing wrong in that if we r recycling them
@@Akash_011it is. It is slightly profitable but at the cost of India's environment and air quality. That's why no Western nation does it even though they can do it much efficiently and make few bucks .
Build earthships with them. Earth sheltered housing is a decent plan in non flooding areas.
So sad to see those hard worker not wearing any footwear and working like that
Actually worker are not aware or they think this is useless
Video part from 11-42 to 11-50 is not indian road and traffic but it is Pakistani road traffic 😂
Impressive 👍☑️
No precautions for the workers working in the recycling plant while they are talking about eco friendly
These workers are like tyres. Used ,paid low wages and discarded.
Amazing Initiative.Hopefully they have her in the Philippines
very good idea by goverment and inginears
# BARRICATION / FENCING /WALL ( EX- RUBBER WALL /FOREST FENCING etc)
Just roll with it.
Great ideas can chnage india
Why does India allow dumping of waste tyres from other countries into India? 10:25
until this past decade, India was considered as a 3rd world country..... so the so-called 1st & 2nd world countries made deals to dump waste for cash credits.....
@@anandhindu31233rd world country doesn’t mean 3rd class.
It’s a notation to group countries starting america and going towards asian countries.
@@onceajordan 👍👍🙌🙌🙌🙌
Crumbs rubber modified bitumen called Crmb
Every 31k miles 😮 my tires at 83k miles and still has tread but are 7 years old.
I've replaced 2 of the 4 it's paycheck to paycheck so 2 more months and all 4 will be brand new.
In a documentary related to Indian tires, closing shot is of canal road, Lahore, Pakistan.
We should create a separate ministry of recycling and pollution control
Also adopt BRICS currency
Less people would be a start. Why do we need so many people? Why keep growing? What is the point?
I wish our roads looked that good here in the UK. But the question is, how long will it last due to heavy traffic and heat from the sun beating down on it everyday.
Gud
So what I am getting is that the policy in place it is just the implementation part which needs to be taken care of at the moment .... we need to make the the road making contractors more aware of CRMBs benefits .... this can be done but government has to participate in that .... 🙏 ....
Great drone shots love healthy food mine same healthy putra and healthy pizza ❤😂
Take out wire.rubber waste.recycle for retreat tyre use
If c r m b produces a smoother road with less friction won't that increase the amount of traffic accidents? How about under icy conditions?
2.75,000 / day, green tribunal report
It has long been known there is NO way to dispose of old tires
all that can be done is recycle the rubber into useful products
like rubber mulch, or, rubber floor pads or whatever. Old tires
will not desolve & go away. Ever.
!
The rubber can be used to gym flooring mats.
Bad, smell 🤒😞
@@user-bo2uu1yp1d not really. It just temporary.
Decreases over time
RIP Microplastics
Hmm ... Looks like it's time to start eating tires!!
Humans thought they have developed😂😂
REVERSE IT AS FERTILIZER FOR RUBBER 🌲
Govt should put 28% tax on all white goods- Suzuki to luxury car. This will reduce the rate of auto sales, with growing middle class. 2% cess on luxury and high engine range can be put.
- eV/ Commercial Trucks/ Heavy Machinery & 2 wheelers must be at 8% Tax rate.
You could not earn enough to own a car, so don't be frustrated and defer others from owning one please.
Maybe there should be some kind of tax on owning multiple vehicles, which is usually not needed. Like you can have 1 or 2 two wheeler and 1 or 2 four wheelers depending on the number of family members etc. Large taxes on every vehicle purchase is just a bad idea.
@@ashutosht10 cute
Sr give me thas tyre company nmbr
Good recycle , Sweden have bad asphalt and have something to take after India .
@11:43 using Pakistan's footage while talking about the road construction potential in India is not just an error but sheer laziness on editor's, supervising producer's part.
Sr I want thas compny nmbr
10:39 "Europe" is not a "country".
No no it not India, it was Pakistan or Bangladesh, we India never do this don't frame India superpower country
End car dependency!
Fancy India having better roads than the UK, UK roads are not much better than a dirt road in a 3rd world country, the UK is now a 3rd world country, but with the taxes of a 1st world country.
