ABSTRACT In the cities of La Paz and El Alto (Bolivia), the accelerated expansion of its automotive fleet is causing a significant increase in disused solid waste (batteries, oils, tires, etc.), which contribute to the environmental deterioration of the city. With specific reference to worn tires, a recycling system has been designed by subjecting the tires to a process of the mechanical disintegration and subsequent cryogenization, to separately obtain reusable materials: steel wire, plastic textile fibers and ground rubber in different granular sizes.
