Whole Tire Disposal System, Abstract An apparatus and process for the decomposition of waste tires while removing and recovering important segments of the oils and carbon black residues of combustion through a system of sequentially arranged tanks through which the gases of combustion are caused to travel a tortuous path. The fan that draws the gases of combustion through the intake tanks then blows the partially-cleaned gases through a system of sequentially arranged exhaust tanks that completes the removal of carbon black and also filters obnoxious and deleterious materials from the gases prior to discharge to the atmosphere.

Why it's free to use
- Filed November 14, 1989 and granted July 7, 1992. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 14, 2009.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 14, 2011.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
