According to a World Bank report, in 2018, about 2.01 billion tons of municipal solid waste were generated, and this amount was predicted to grow to 3.40 billion tons by 2050 (Kaza et al 2018). Waste glass (WG) is …
ادامه مطلبThe water, sand, and gravel or crushed stone used in concrete production in addition to cement are also abundant (typical proportions of a residential concrete mix are shown in Table 1). With all of these raw materials, the distance and quality of the sources have a big impact on transportation energy use, water use for washing, and dust ...
ادامه مطلبThe challenging issue of demand for sand in concrete can be addressed by exploring alternative materials. Mechanism sand [12], aeolian sand [13], waste foundry sand [14], construction demolition waste [15], industrial by-products (such as coal ash, aged clay tailings, copper tailings) [16], [17], [18], and sea sand [19] are among the …
ادامه مطلبThe percentage of plastic waste recycled in 2015 was 16%. Estimations show that in 2021, the recycling rate will increase up to 25%. But if this production estimation turns out to be valid, a significant amount of plastic waste will still be left un recycled (Foti, 2019).Then, there is a necessity of increasing the recycling of plastic …
ادامه مطلبConsequently, concrete is one of the most widely used materials on Earth, with its outdated linear "take-make-waste" production model making it one of the most environmentally harmful.
ادامه مطلبWhen OPC is mixed with water, sand, and gravel material during the production of concrete, it becomes highly alkaline, creating a seemingly ideal environment for the sequestration and long-term storage of carbon dioxide in the form of carbonate materials (a process known as carbonation).
