Dear Amanda Gregory,
There are 2 answers to your question; the first is the one with which the rubber recycler ought to be satisfied; the second is the one to which the student ought to aspire:
1. Carbon Black was fetching $20-27 /bbl throughout the 1990s; The price of recycled tire rubber has so widely varied - geographically, temporally, and by economic fluctuations writ large - that giving a range or a trend is meaningless.
2. Get hold of the following document:
