| description abstract | Warm mix asphalt (WMA) describes various technologies that allow asphalt mixtures to be produced at lower temperatures as compared to hot mix asphalt (HMA). WMA technologies also offer improvements in workability, cost, and environmental sustainability such as reduced fuel usage, greenhouse gas emissions, and wear and tear at plants, while enhancing worker health and safety conditions. These benefits, as well as the mechanical properties of WMA mixtures, need to be quantified and compared to that of HMA. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the laboratory performance of plant-produced lab-compacted mixtures utilizing various WMA technologies. The secondary objective of this study was to compare WMA energy consumption cost and emission data to conventional HMA mixtures in terms of fuel/energy savings at the plant and in terms of CO and | |
