Our project seeks to greatly reduce the energy required for concrete production by using mostly recycled concrete. The use of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is not a new phenomenon, but has not ...

A recent study published in Engineering titled “Strategies to Improve the Life Cycle Net CO₂ Benefit of Recycled Aggregate Concrete” offers valuable insights into enhancing the environmental ...

Results of a new five-year study of recycled concrete show that it performs as well, and in several cases even better, than conventional concrete. Researchers conducted side-by-side comparisons of ...

Civil engineering researchers at Purdue University are currently trying to perfect a process for the handling and reuse of recycled concrete. It is believed that recycling concrete could help reduce ...

The core of the Ecoflex systems is a tire with one sidewall removed. This is termed an Ecoflex Unit. In most applications the Ecoflex unit is filled with crushed stone or recycled concrete aggregate.

Aside from simply finding a new use for discarded goods, we’ve seen how adding recycled rubber tires to concrete can make the material stronger and more heat resistant. New research has continued to ...

Production of the cement used in concrete is a huge source of CO2 emissions, so the more that we can recycle existing concrete, the better. That's where a new study comes in, which indicates that ...

It’s a simple concept with a not so simple answer: reduce the weight of concrete without compromising strength. Let’s complicate things one more factor and address environmental issues as well; not ...

The Recycled Colored Glass Aggregate has a multi-dimensional shape and permanent color not found in natural marble aggregates. Made from recycled bottles and window ...
