Using Pyrolized Carbon Black (Pcb) From Waste Tires In Asphalt Pavement (Part 1, Limestone Aggregate), Taesoon Park, C. W. Lovell
Using Pyrolized Carbon Black (Pcb) From Waste Tires In Asphalt Pavement (Part 1, Limestone Aggregate), Taesoon Park, C. W. Lovell
JTRP Technical Reports
This study presents the viability of using PCB as an additive in hot mix asphalt concrete. Different ratios of PCB (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by weight of asphalt) were blended with two grades of asphalt (AC-10 and AC-20). The complete behaviors of the PCB modified asphalt concrete were investigated by comprehensive laboratory testing and evaluation. The Marshall method was used to determine the optimum binder content and the mechanical properties and void relationships were investigated by this method. The Gyratory Testing Machine was used to define the stress-strain relationships of the PCB mixtures. The rutting potential of PCB mixtures …

Use Of Waste Foundry Sand In Highway Construction : Final Report, Sayeed Javed
JTRP Technical Reports
The promulgation of environmental regulations, both at the federal and state level, have resulted in increased control over both the hazardous and nonhazardous wastes generated in the foundry industry. The increased regulation action has in many cases resulted in foundry wastes being disposed in highly engineered and often times costly land disposal facilities. Beneficial reuse represents an alternative to disposal and the associated problems of diminished landfill capacity and increased tipping fees. This study contains: synthesis of all available information and laboratory results for different beneficial uses of waste foundry sand. Among the different beneficial uses, waste foundry sand as …
