Abstract: The exploration of alternative energy sources has broadened to include modifying or partially replacing asphalt binders with materials derived from waste for use in road construction. This study optimized the formulation ...

Abstract: Pyrolysis is increasingly acknowledged as a sustainable process for converting waste plastic and tire rubber into pyro-oils, addressing the environmental challenges faced by India and other countries in the disposal of ...

Abstract: Pyrolysis technology is receiving growing attention for managing postconsumer tire and plastic waste streams. Pyrolytic char is generated as a byproduct in the pyrolysis process and faces challenges regarding its stable ...

Abstract: Waste ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) rubber and tire pyrolytic oil (TPO) derived from waste tire pyrolysis have shown promising results for their use in asphalt binder modification. However, their incorporation ...

Abstract: This study evaluated tire pyrolytic oil (TPO) derived from waste tire pyrolysis as a rejuvenating agent for three types of aged asphalt binders (unmodified, polymer-modified, and crumb rubber–modified). Gas chromatography–mass ...

Abstract: Composite modification of an asphalt binder forms an interesting approach to enhance the properties over diverse performance regimes. Aging of asphalt binders during the production, construction, and service life of the ...

Abstract: Pyrolysis is being employed as a viable option for the disposal of different industrial and agricultural wastes, including end-of-life vehicle tires. Tire pyrolytic char (TPC), a solid fine carbonaceous material obtained ...

Abstract: Evaluation of the pavement condition is expensive, time-consuming, and labor-intensive and becomes even more challenging in remote areas. Nondestructive remote-sensing techniques can enable pavement condition assessment ...
