Excellent- More about Recycled Aggregates: Materials and Uses
C&D waste is a significant waste generating activity, generating hundreds of millions of tons annually. Recycled aggregates (RA) can be used for various activities, such as manufacturing concrete, landfilling, and manufacturing tiles, bricks, and pavement blocks. This book deals with the socio-economic, technical, environmental, and policy issues related to the application of RA in different countries.

The exponential growth in our needs and demands has resulted in a staggering increase in the amount of waste generated by modern cities. This global issue requires comprehensive waste management strategies across nations. These strategies encompass disposal, the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle), each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. A growing emphasis is being placed on the implementation of the 3Rs, particularly from an environmental standpoint. Construction and demolition (C&D) waste emerges as a significant byproduct of new infrastructure construction and the demolition or renovation of older structures. Annually, hundreds of millions of tons of C&D waste are generated worldwide, making it one of the world's most prominent waste-generating activities. One effective approach to managing a substantial portion of this waste is through the use of recycled aggregates (RA), where waste is crushed to resemble coarse and fine aggregates and utilized for various purposes, most notably in the production of concrete. Other applications may include landfilling, manufacturing of tiles, bricks, pavement blocks, and more. Recently, the exploration of used PET bottles as a source of recycled aggregates has gained attention.
This book delves into the diverse socio-economic, technical, environmental, and policy considerations associated with the application of various types of recycled aggregates across different countries worldwide. It represents a rapidly evolving field of applied research that demands increased attention from researchers, planners, and regulators alike.
