                Good year for tire recovery. (recycling tires) 
            Abstract: The recovery of scrap tires in the US is increasing with 
            the growing demands due to new found applications in agriculture, 
            civil engineering and an increase in ground rubber usage. In 1995, 
            69% of the total scrap tires were recovered. Tire pipe structures, 
            marine fenders, rubber pads, and cow bedding for dairy farms are 
            made from recycled scrap tires. Tire-derived fuel is used in pulp 
            and paper mills, power plants and for electric utilities. Many 
            companies such as Eastern Iowa Tire Recyclers Inc., American Tire 
            Recyclers and F&B Enterprises are involved in tire recycling.
