A state-of-the-art review on recycling rubber in concrete: Sustainability aspects, specialty mixtures, and treatment methods

Although multiple studies have reviewed the mechanical, durability, and acoustic characteristics of rubberized concrete (RC) mixtures, very limited focused on a comprehensive collation literature pertaining to their environmental, economic, field implementation aspects. Therefore, this paper presented state-of-the-art pertinent environmental economic aspects, thermal savings in terms energy emissions, applications RC mixtures. Further, none systematically specific specialty mixtures (pervious concrete, self-compacting roller-compacted concrete), which was thoroughly examined. The various rubber treatment methodologies enhance rubber-cement interaction were underscored impact aggregates mix properties discussed. Importantly, review identified scope for future advancements at technical levels, is envisioned advance widespread pave way creation an eco-efficient built environment.
