Car tires will start producing oxygen
Everyone is used to the fact that ecological transport is something that works without emissions of harmful substances, preferably an electric car. However, Goodyear decided to take a non-standard approach to the problem of harmful vehicle exhausts and presented its new Oxygen tires to the public.
According to the New Atlas publication, using a special tire structure, real moss was placed under the rubber. According to company representatives, the tires let carbon dioxide and moisture in, thereby providing power to the moss, and in return it produces oxygen. According to Goodyear experts, 5 million pairs of such wheels will absorb 4 thousand tons of carbon dioxide, and produce a total of 3 thousand tons of oxygen.
Although this alone is worthy of praise, Goodyar also claims that part of the energy generated by the new tires can be used to power the car! We are talking about low-cost devices such as parking sensors. The tires themselves will be printed on a 3D printer, the material for which will be recycled recycled tires.
