This demonstration tire also tested to have lower rolling resistance when compared to the reference tire, made with traditional materials. This demonstration tire includes a high-quality silica produced from rice husk waste residue (RHA silica), a byproduct of rice processing that is often discarded and put into landfills.

University of British Columbia (UBC) engineers have used polymeric scrap tire fibers (STF) to develop a more resilient type of concrete that could be used for concrete structures such as buildings, roads, dams and bridges, while reducing landfill waste. Relative to a plain reference mixture, 0.4% STF and 0.3% and 99.4%, respectively.

Lignin is a structural bio-polymer which contributes to the rigidity of plants. Hybrid technology refers to the production of fuels by both biochemical (fermentation of carbohydrates) and thermochemical (thermal upgrading of lignin) processes. Initiatives such as the LEO Coalition are an important catalyst in this process.

Unlike QD-enabled LCD displays (commonly referred to as QLED) where red and green QDs are dispersed uniformly in a polymer film, QD-OLED requires the QD layers to be patterned and aligned with the OLEDs behind them. Samsung is expected to employ inkjet printing, an approach that reduces the waste of QD material.

New Oil Resources’ process uses near-critical water to treat the biomass in a process commonly referred to as hydrothermal liquefaction or thermal depolymerization. Immediate applications include processing municipal sewage sludge, processing waste streams from the ethanol industry and converting algae to fuel.
