    CD08-002 WASTE CEMENT AND CONCRETE MANAGEMENT AS COST- EFFECTIVE AND ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY: PRINCIPLES AND PERSPECTIVES I.M. Kelayeh1, A.A. Mounesan2, K. Siamardi3, M.M. Khodavirdi Zanjani3 1 Member of Management Association, Assistant of Technology & Development, Civil 2Civil Engineer, Sharif University of Technology, General Manager of Atisaz Company 3Civil Engineer, Concrete Research Center, Atisaz Company ABSTRACT The use of recycled aggregates in concrete opens a whole new range of possibilities in the reuse of materials in the building industry. The utilization of recycled aggregates is a good solution to the problem of an excess of waste material, provided that the desired final product quality is reached. The studies on the use of recycled aggregates have been going on for 50 years. In fact, none of the results showed that recycled aggregates are unsuitable for structural use. Using the recycled aggregate is a cost-affective and environmental friendly solution which is required general waste concrete management knowledge. This paper is focusing on waste cement and concrete management for optimizing the construction costs. The ways for reducing the green house gases (GHG) at cement and batch plants are suggested. A comparison among Iran industrial utilized cement volume and other countries was performed. Finally, it can be concluded that application of recycling concrete could reduce the costs by reducing truck traffic, providing the Non- Renewable Resource, Better Trucking Utilization (Reduced Costs), Allow down to 10% Deleterious Materials in Iran. Keywords: waste concrete management, utilized cement volume, cement plants, concrete recycling, GHG reduction. 1. INTRODUCTION The amount of construction and demolition waste (CDW) has increased considerably over the last few years.

    The Cement Sustainability Initiative Recycling Concrete Executive summary World Business Council for Sustainable Development Introduction Concrete is everywhere. It is the second most consumed material after water Recycling concrete and it shapes our built environment. Homes, schools, hospitals, offices, roads reduces natural and footpaths all make use of concrete. Concrete is an excellent material to make long-lasting and energy-efficient buildings. However, even with resource exploitation good design, human needs change and potential waste will be generated. and associated Changes in infrastructure planning and needs result in the generation of transportation costs, construction and demolition waste (C&DW): an estimated 900 million and reduces waste tonnes every year in Europe, the US and Japan. going to landfill. The Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI) has been looking at the recycling However, it has little of concrete as a component of better business practice for sustainable impact on reducing development. Concrete has fairly unique properties and its recovery often greenhouse gas falls between standard definitions of reuse and recycling. Concrete is broken emissions. down into aggregate for use in a new life. This new life is usually road works aggregates, but in some areas it is also used as aggregates in new concrete. In some countries near full recovery of concrete is achieved. However, in Twice as much many parts of the world the potential to recover concrete is overlooked concrete is used in and it ends up as unnecessary waste in landfill. Furthermore, concrete construction around waste statistics are generally difficult to secure. This is partially explained by the world than the the relatively low hazard that the waste poses compared with some other materials, resulting in low public concern.

  • Concrete Pavement Recycling
    Concrete Pavement Recycling Mark B. Snyder, Ph.D., P.E. Pavement Engineering and Research Consultants (PERC), LLC Engineering Consultant to CP Tech Center What is Concrete Recycling? • Breaking, removing and crushing hardened concrete from an acceptable source. • Old concrete pavements often are excellent sources of material for producing RCA. • Concrete pavements are 100% recyclable! 2 In-Place Concrete Recycling • When RCA is to be used in a subbase layer of the roadway and/or shoulders, production can be accomplished using an in-place concrete recycling train. 3 Recycling Ready-Mixed Concrete • Approximately 5% of the 445 million cubic yards of ready mixed concrete produced in the U.S. each year is returned to the concrete plant. • Recycling this material, as with recycling any existing concrete material, presents significant sustainable benefits, including reduction of landfill use and virgin aggregate use. 4 Reasons for Concrete Recycling • Dwindling landfill space/increasing disposal costs – 50000 U.S. landfills accepting PCC in 1980 – 5000 U.S. landfills accepting PCC in 2000 • Rapidly increasing demand for aggregates with limited resources • Sustainability – Conservation of materials – Potential reduced environmental impact due to reduced construction traffic, reduced landfill – Cost savings • Potential for improved pavement performance • A proven technology – it works! 5 Potential Pavement Performance Improvements • Foundation stability; angular, rough texture and secondary cementing action. • Concrete strength; partial substitution of RCA for virgin fine aggregate may increase concrete compressive strength. 6 Concrete Recycling: A Proven Technology! 41 of 50 states allow use of RCA in various applications (FHWA, 2004) 7 Uses of Recycled Concrete Aggregate • PCC pavement – Single and Two-Lift • HMA pavement • Subbase – Unbound – Stabilized • Fill material • Filter material • Drainage layer 8 Unstabilized Subbases/Backfill • Most common application for RCA in U.S.

  • Environmental Impact of Concrete Recycling, Coming from Construction and Demolition Waste (C&Dw)
    ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF CONCRETE RECYCLING, COMING FROM CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE (C&DW) Authors: Beatriz Estévez*a , Antonio Aguadoa, Alejandro Josaa a Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya (UPC), School of Civil Engineering (ETSECCPB), Jordi Girona 1-3, Módulo C1, E-08034 Barcelona, Spain ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of a research study on the environmental impact produced by the recycling of concrete originating from construction and demolition waste (C&DW). The aim of the study was to implement a life cycle inventory (LCI) of the concrete recycling phases. It was carried out in Spain, with data collected from the various recycling processes involved in the mobile crushing plants operating in Catalonia. The values have been compared with the environmental impact produced during the extraction processes of natural resources (gravel and sand) from different European databases. The main emissions (CO2, NOx, SO2, SOx, and dust) with major influence on the greenhouse effect, acidification, and eutrophication were considered. The recycling waste processes generate lower environmental impact than the natural aggregate extraction. The amount of CO2 emitted is approximately 3,000 g per ton of recycled aggregate, while this value varied from around 6,900 to 7,700 g per ton for the gravel and sand extraction processes considered. INTRODUCTION In the EU, the current annual production of construction and demolition waste (C&DW) is on the order of about 180 million tonnes, of which, about 28% is recycled (EU, 1999). Several countries have implemented Action Programmes to increment the amount of recycled material. (Lauritzen, 1997). These countries included Spain, where 25 to 30 % of C&DW was being recycled by the year 2000, and where the Environment Ministry has proposed an Action Programme (BOE, 2001) to increase these values, so as to recycle at least 40% by 2005, and 60% by the year 2006.

  • Performance and Emission Analysis of Waste Vegetable Oil on C.I. Engine
    IOSR Journal of Mechanical & Civil Engineering (IOSRJMCE) e-ISSN: 2278-1684,p-ISSN: 2320-334X PP 37-46 www.iosrjournals.org Performance And Emission Analysis of waste vegetable oil on C.I. Engine A. S. Wagh, K. G. Nawandar, J.A. Patil, S. H. Gawande (Department of Mechanical Engineering, M.E.S. College of Engineering, Pune, S.P. Pune University, India) Abstract : A design methodology for biodiesel production from waste cooking oil is proposed. The proposed method is flexible to the biodiesel process using various catalyst types: alkali and acid catalyst in homogenous and heterogeneous forms, and different process: enzyme process and supercritical process. A two-step approach of hydrolysis and esterification processes is also considered. Waste cooking palm oil consists of a mixture of triglyceride (e.g., trilaurin, tripalmitin, triolein, tristearin, trilinolein and trilinolenin) and free fatty acids e.g. palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic and linolenic acid). A driving force approach and thermodynamicinsight are employed to design separation units (e.g., flash separator and distillation) minimizing the energy consumption. Steady-state simulations of the developed biodiesel processes are performed and economic analysis is used to find a suitable biodiesel process. The results show that based on a net present value, the heterogeneous acidcatalyzed process is the best process for biodiesel production. With the design methodology, the proposed biodieselprocess can save the energy requirement of 41.5 %, compared with a conventional process. Keywords - Process design; biodiesel production; waste cooking oil; Transesterification; Superstructure; I. INTRODUCTION Due to a limited availability of fossil fuels and an increased price of petroleum diesel, biodiesel, known as a fatty acid alkyl ester, has become an important alternative fuel that offers several advantages including its renewability and low emission profile of carbon monoxide and unburned carbon.

A series of concrete mixtures with various replacement ratios of primary resources with recycled ones were prepared for this study. The mechanical properties of concrete mixtures were examined and were used for the design of structural elements in the same utilized properties. The two use cycles of a structural element were compared using life cycle assessment (LCA). In the first use cycle, the LCA of the structural element containing only primary raw materials was assessed. In the second use cycle, the LCA of a structural element in which primary materials were partially replaced by recycled ones was assessed. The obtained results confirm the potential use of high-quality recycled aggregate originating from local sources in some applications in building structures. Furthermore, the environmental assessment indicates the benefits of using recycled materials, such as environmental savings, especially the reduction of primary resource use, embodied energy, and embodied emissions, as well as reduction of the pressure on landfill sites.

Y. Tam1* Abstract Recycling of construction material helps saving the limited landfill space. Among various types of materials, concrete waste accounts for about 50% of the total waste generation. The current practice for dumping construction materials to landfills generates a significant quantity of waste from construction sites. Recycling concrete waste as recycled aggregate is one of the methods to reduce the concrete waste. Therefore, this paper investigates the economical considerations in recycling concrete waste. A comparative study on costs and benefits between the current practice and the concrete recycling method is examined. The study shows that it has a negative net benefit for the current practice while a positive net benefit for the concrete recycling method. Therefore, recycling concrete as aggregate for new concrete production can provide a cost-effective method for the construction industry and help saving the environment. Keywords: Benefit, cost, economical, recycling, concrete, construction 1 Introduction The promotion of environmental management and the mission of sustainable development worldwide have exerted the pressure for the adoption of proper methods to protect the environment across all industries including building and construction.

While RCA within is recyclable as well). can be transported virtually anywhere, reusing the concrete at its original site (in-place recycling) has several benefi ts that can save on costs. By eliminating the costs of removing old concrete, factoring in savings on disposal costs, and the potential cost of road damage from transport of virgin or waste materials, some states have estimated savings of up to 50% to 60% from using recycled aggregates versus buying new aggregate. In-place concrete recycling reduces construction costs because a contractor doesn’t have to locate a recycling center or pay for hauling the materials away. This ultimately saves money for taxpayers and agencies. Environmental benefi ts of in-place recycling include reduced truck traffi c, reduced fuel consumption and improved air quality by limiting exhaust fumes.
