Abstract

One cannot imagine life without transportation and tires keep the transportation rolling and alive. The advents of
using pneumatic tires have increased the usage at immoderate level which leads to the causes of tire waste. The reason why
the task of its disposal is very challenging as it requires large amount of land area. The present paper enlightens the
suggestion of reusing or recycling waste crumb rubber so that technological development can be environment beneficial. The
paper represents the recent developments in the field of utilization of crumb rubber waste for green and sustainable
construction material. It also reveals the possibilities of utilization of crumb rubber in geopolymer concrete, from the work
done so far. The utilization of crumb rubber in geopolymer concrete bears strong potential to meet a demand of healthy
environment.
