Experimental Investigation Of Glass Waste Suitability For Green Concrete
Keywords:
Normal Concrete, Reused Concrete, Reused Coarse Aggregate, Reused Fine AggregateAbstract
Cement Industry in India is the 2nd largest Industries in the world with an installed capacity of 410 million metric tonnes per annum in 2024.The amount of natural coarse aggregate used by construction industry is approximately may be taken as 1100MT per year and is a very huge quantity of this natural materials. It is worth mentioning that the construction and demolition (C&D) waste from civil engineering works like buildings, pavements, and roadways are increasing exponentially which creates a lot of difficulty in the mining activities. It is expected that the recycled aggregates obtained from C&D waste like crushed concrete, ceramic waste (tiles, bricks), glass, and plastics, may be recycled in concrete which in turn brings sustainability in construction industry as well as sustainable use of natural materials. Indian policymakers are beginning to pay more attention to the management of construction and demolition waste(C&DW).
