Sinopse
Recycled Roads explores the transformative potential of using waste materials, particularly plastic waste, in road construction. It addresses the global waste crisis by detailing how discarded materials can become valuable resources, contributing to sustainable infrastructure and a circular economy. The book highlights the alarming statistic that vast amounts of plastic waste end up in landfills and oceans, posing a significant environmental threat. It also examines how traditional road construction methods deplete finite resources and contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. The book delves into the engineering and technological processes involved in incorporating recycled materials like plastics and rubber into asphalt and concrete mixtures. Case studies from around the world showcase successful recycled road projects, demonstrating their long-term economic and environmental benefits, such as reduced costs and lower carbon emissions. Recycled Roads takes a practical approach, going beyond theoretical aspects to provide guidance for engineers and policymakers. It progresses from an overview of the global waste crisis to the science behind recycled road construction, culminating in an assessment of its long-term benefits and practical guidelines for implementation.
