Abstract
Waste tyres represent one of the environmentally damaging fractions of the solid waste stream in Tunisia, where the problem of inefficient waste tyre management is endemic. This is easily identified by the piles of accumulating tyre waste located on both sides of many streets and in illegal places. therefore, the efficient management of this solid waste category is important given the large quantities generated annually. The difficulties represented by waste tyres in waste management stem from the physical and chemical characteristics of the tyres. Significant environmental problems can also arise due to improper management and disposal of waste tyres. However, in many Global South countries, including Tunisia, the management of waste tyres has not received adequate interest, and the waste tyres' processing, treatment and disposal are still nascent.
