ABSTRACT:
Tires are converted to rubber particles and inorganic compounds are removed from the tires by treating the tires in a closed reactor with a nitric acid solution having a nitric acid concentration above 60%. In the preferred embodiment, any steel belts contained in the tires are first removed. The tires are then treated with a solution of concentrated nitric acid in which the acid concentration is maintained above 60% which extracts inorganic compounds such as zinc, sulfur and calcium from the tires and converts the tires into rubber particles.
