One such end-of-use solution is the application of plastic waste for paving roads. This solution is marketed as a win-win option for plastic waste, use the single-use waste material to pave roads and save money, and simultaneously tackle the accumulated plastic waste. Paving with plastic is occurring globally, but has been especially appealing in the global south contexts where waste management infrastructure is lacking, and pressure to do something about the plastic waste is high.

  • Economics and Viability of Plastic Road : a Review Amit P
    J. Curr. Chem. Pharm. Sc.: 3(4), 2013, 231-242 ISSN 2277-2871 ECONOMICS AND VIABILITY OF PLASTIC ROAD : A REVIEW AMIT P. GAWANDE* Department of Chemical Engineering, College of Engineering and Technology, AKOLA (M.S.) INDIA (Received : 07.09.2013; Revised : 19.09.2013; Accepted : 20.09.2013) ABSTRACT The use of plastic and related materials is increasing exponentially due to tremendous growth in population, urbanization and changed life style leads to widespread littering of plastic on the landscape. Disposal of waste plastic is a serious problem globally due to their non-biodegradability and hazardous to human health, since these are not disposed scientifically and thus, create ground and water pollution. If this curse to mankind in the form of waste plastic is used as a boon for mankind by using it as additives in road construction, it will proved to be a best solution over worst road condition. In the present paper techniques has been developed to use plastic waste for construction of bituminous roads and flexible pavements. In general bitumen is used as binder in road construction. Binding properties of this bitumen can be modified by blending it with waste plastic pieces. It can be used for construction purpose. Waste plastic coated road aggregates can improve road strength. This modified bitumen mix and aggregates show better binding property, stability, density and more resistant to water thus increasing durability of roads with increased resistance to wear and tear of road. Key words: Plastic waste, Mechanical characteristics, Bituminous mix, Plastic roads. INTRODUCTION The threat of disposal of plastic will not solve until the practical steps are not initiated at the ground level.

  • The Application of Waste Plastics in Road Construction Mr
    NOVATEUR PUBLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATIONS IN ENGINEERING RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY [IJIERT] ISSN: 2394-3696 VOLUME 4, ISSUE 11, Nov.-2017 THE APPLICATION OF WASTE PLASTICS IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION MR. YASHODHAN ARVIND JAGTAP M. Tech. Student Department of Construction Management, MIT College of Management, Pune DIGVIJAY PRAMOD BHOSALE M. Tech. Student Department of Construction Management, MIT College of Management, Pune ABSTRACT Disposal of plastic waste in the environment is considered to be a big problem because it is very low in biodegradability and its presence is large. Chocolate, chocolate, chips, handbags, cold drink bottles and other plastic packaging can cause major environmental and economic problems. They consume a lot of energy and other natural resources and exhaust the environment in various ways. In recent years, the use of industrial waste to replace a part of conventional concrete aggregate is being studied. Most of Indian plastic recycling occurred. Up to 60% of industrial and municipal plastic waste is recycled and available from various sources. The Indians release large quantities of plastic waste with enormous economic value. Therefore, the recycling of plastic waste plays an important role in job creation. The "Maale" village located in the Pune district proposes a 2.8 kilometer road suggestion to use the asphalt blend. Building asphalt mixed plastic roads in the village can reduce the plastic waste generated in the village. The adhesion properties of bitumen can be changed by mixing with plastic waste. It can be used for building purposes. In this paper, we propose construction of asphalt mixed plastic roads addressing the problem of non- biodegradable waste in Pune's "MAALE" village.

Laboratory tests have shown positive results when a small amount (5-10% by weight) of plastic is incorporated in bituminous mixes (asphalt), resulting in improved pavement stability, strength, and durability. However, international field experience using plastics in actual road construction is quite limited. In this review, we found examples of waste plastics being used in road construction in a few case studies in India, UK, Netherlands, Ghana, Ethiopia and South Africa. While roads constructed using waste plastics have shown good longevity and pavement performance to date, the first roads constructed using this technology are only about ten years old, so long-term outcomes are not yet clear.

  • Review Paper on Plastic Road
    Vol-6 Issue-1 2020 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 REVIEW PAPER ON PLASTIC ROAD Er. Ravi Kamboj1, Er. Ashok Anand2, Er. Vipin Kumar3 1 Asst. Prof Ravi Kamboj., Civil Department, Roorkee College of Engineering,Roorkee, Uttarakhand, 2 Asst. Prof Ashok Anand., Civil Department, Roorkee College of Engineering, Uttarakhand, India 3 Lecturer Vipin Kumar., Civil Department, Roorkee College of Engineering, Uttarakhand, India ABSTRACT A Government order in November 2015 has made mandatory for all road developers in the country to use waste plastic, along with bituminous mixes, for road construction. This is to help overcome the growing problem of plastic waste disposal in India. Plastic roads are different from standard roads in the respect that standard roads are made from asphalt concrete, which consists of mineral aggregates and asphalt. The technology was developed by the ‘Plastic Man’ of India, Prof Rajagopalan Vasudevan, Professor at Thiagarajar College of Engineering, Madurai. Plastic has slowly became an integral part of all human requirements. Plastic roads are made entirely of plastic or of composites of plastic with other materials. Keyword : Plastic Road, Asphalt Bitumen Stone Road 1. INTRODUCTION Plastic carry bags, packaging material, bottles, cups, and various other items have slowly replaced everything made of other material due to the advantages of plastic. Plastic is durable, easy to produce, lightweight, unbreakable, odour less, and chemical resistant. Plastic garbage is commonly seen around the country and has started causing several problems. Plastic waste clogs drains, causing floods. It chokes animals who eat plastic bags, etc. Plastics found in fields blocks germination and prevent rainwater absorption.
