Currently, pollution due to textile materials is a crisis that threatens the whole world. Due concern for environment, our society has faced challenges when it comes finding eco-friendly substitutes fibers and leather materials. This can be achieved using renewable or recycled polymers are either readily biodegradable easily at end of product's life. Thus, material made from natural resources, ...

This paper investigated the moisture and strength properties of wood-polymer composites (WPC), which were made using three different recycled polymers wood flour as filler. The acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), collected from among construction demolition waste (CDW) at a local management center. commercial additives, such coupling agent lubricant, al...

Full scale tests with crushed concrete used in sub-bases in roads show that the material has capacity to reharden, very slowly but also after prolonged periods of time. The rehardening process in crushed concrete aggregate has been analysed with a thermogravimetric method, comparing the change in chemical composition in the aggregate when set with water, compacted and hardened. It has been show...

This paper describes a study for waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) to characterise the plastic composition different mixed fractions. Most samples studied are currently excluded from material recycling arise as side streams in state-of-the-art plastics plants. These contain brominated flame retardants (BFR) or other substances concern listed persistent organic pollutants RoHS ...

A significant portion of the global plastics market encompasses production polyolefin materials and especially polypropylene (PP) polyethylene (PE), as commodity polymers with a wide range applications. However, increase in generation unsustainable plastic waste requires close technological look-up to address this challenge adequately. In context, mechanical recycling is part strategies expecte...

Subgrade soil stabilization is one of the primary and major processes in the construction of any highway; also environmental authorities are concerned about the growing amount of polyethylene (PET) bottles produced by household sectors. This research in order to study effect of adding recycled polyester fiber on soil engineering properties, especially shear strength and California Bearing Ratio...

the purpose of this research was to evaluate the application of recycled aggregates of constructiondebris such as concrete, cement block and rubbles from pars-kangan site in asphalt concrete mix design. toevaluate the performance of aggregates different mix designs with recycled aggregate percentages of 0, 10,30, 50 and bitumen percentages of 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, and 6.5 were provided and two mar...
