    there is a company in Sydney recycling tyres and breaking them down into oil, rubber, silicon, steel etc and diesoline. I cant for the life of me remember the name but will research and forward the companies name as soon I have it.

    They also get used to make artificial reefs, bolted together they fill with sand and stabilise very quickly. Also (but no longer) for dune stabilisation.

    Completely feasible, if you use something like natural gas to start the process and then start adding tyres at high temperature (above 700C).
    This is already a proven auxiliary fuel for cement kilns (one example).
