Bill Schwab is an unknown quantity at this point
There is a company whp uses a chop gun with a vulcanizing system and sprays rubber over the ground. It is pretty expensive and usually 3 inches of so thick. That is the problem with recycled tires. To pulp them, the machine used to shred them is like a tub grinder for rubber. It shreds them, extracts the steel, and conveys the rubber into a roll off bax. Every 25 hours the machine is down to replace hammers and parts, which, are costly and labor intensive..
