    Particle exposure can lead to a variety of health effects. For example, numerous studies link particle levels to increased hospital admissions and emergency room visits - and even to death from heart or lung diseases. Scrap tire combustion releases several toxic air pollutants. This study assessed the generation of H<inf>2</inf>, N<inf>2</inf>, CO, H<inf>2</inf>S and nine aliphatic compounds, namely CH4 (Methane), C<inf>2</inf>H<inf>2</inf> (Acetylene), C<inf>2</inf>H<inf>4</inf> (Ethylene), C<inf>2</inf>H<inf>6</inf> (Ethane), C<inf>3</inf>H<inf>6</inf> (Propylene), C<inf>3</inf>H<inf>8</inf> (Propane), C<inf>4</inf>H<inf>8</inf> (Butene), C<inf>4</inf>H<inf>10</inf> (Butane), C<inf>5</inf>H<inf>12</inf> (Pentane) generated in a used-tire pyrolysis process and the aliphatics removal by a wet scrubber (WSB) and a flare. CH<inf>4</inf>, H<inf>2</inf>, N<inf>2</inf> and C<inf>2</inf>H<inf>6</inf> were found to be major gaseous species in pyrolysis emissions with the percentage contributions to total sum of gaseous species of 33.18%, 15.62%, 12.23% and 8.69% respectively. © 2013 WIT Press.
