Understanding Tire Derived Aggregate

The CA Department of Resources Recycling & Recovery report on TDA informaed us of the following: “Tire-derived aggregate, or TDA, is a recyclable material derived from scrap auto tires. TDA was originally called shreds but with the advancement of standards and specifications that distinguished it from waste tires and other such derivatives, the name TDA was adopted to classify it as a standardized material. TDA has inherently good properties as a business material replacement for traditional aggregates like gravel and pumice-style rock, due to having less weight, high permeability, and a less costly material.

The Society for Testing & Materials (ASTM) has outlined the practices for usage of scrap auto tires in civil engineering applications and describes the material as pieces of scrap tires that have a simple geometrical shape and are usually between 3-12” in size. TDA is made by treating tires with a shredder machine that uses rotating cutting shears and a conveyor and screening system. Shears (which have been sharpened) are needed to produce clean cuts without residual amounts of exposed wire. The 1st pass through the machine produces rougher shreds. Additional passes through the shredder and a screen system break the material down to smaller pieces. The overall principle holds that the smaller the material to be produced, then the more shredding is necessary. While there are many TDA vendors and many various process configurations, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the TDA material delivered meets the desired specs.

Coordinating with vendors to have steady supplies and compliance with the specs is a critical part of the project development process. Vendors usually produce a variety of shredded tire products to match demand and don’t typically maintain back-stock of material. Scrap tires are also processed into tire-derived fuel (TDF) and crumb rubber, two other varieties of processing is executed for these applications.” The full study is available here: http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/Publications/Documents/1545/201601545.pdf
