Based on this inventory, life-cycle impact assessment of WMA technology was conducted. Based on this analysis, it was determined that WMA provides a reduction of 24% on the air pollution impact of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) and a reduction of 18% on fossil fuel consumption. Overall, the use ...
Environmental impact of highway construction and repair materials on surface and ground waters: Case study: crumb rubber asphalt concrete The practice of incorporating certain waste products into highway construction and repair materials (CRMs) has become more popular. These practices have pr... Mohamm...
Environmental Advantages of Recycled Asphalt Drive Global Market Growth Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) makes a substantial impact in lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Through the reuse of existing asphalt materials, the demand for fresh oil in the asphalt manufacturing process is minimized. This reduct...
Environmental factors, such as the temperature in the asphalt concrete layer and the water content in the base layer and the subgrade, have a significant impact on the stiffness of relevant layers in pavement systems, and consequently the estimated life of flexible pavements. A comprehensive ...

The thicknesses of the individual types of membranes were chosen to be suitable for the protection of the building substructure. For example, as presented in Table 1, the thickness range of PVC membranes is 0.6/2 mm, whereas that of MAP membranes is 2/5 mm. 2.3. Environmental impact ...
Cost analysis varies, with a lot depending on operating circumstances, the material in question, the volume of waste, etc. Every situation in recycling is completely different; however, in the mass transit infrastructure and facilities, it is consistent to find that concrete, brick, asphalt, wood...
The environmental impact of cement and concrete production is low per unit volume of material, but the amounts used make the impact of the concrete sector highly important. Reductions in CO2 emissions are possible through the introduction of improvements across the cement and concrete value chain. ...
By the end of 2050, it is expected that 68% of the population will live in urban areas. A higher density of people living in cities generates an increased urban heat island. Radiative cooling (RC) materials are proposed as a key strategy to mitigate glob
