Implementation of Plastic Waste in Manufacturing of Paving Blocks for Different Shapes
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Structural Engineering
Abstract
Block Paving is a commonly used decorative method of creating a pavement or hardstanding. The main benefit of Paving Blocks Over other materials is that it can later be replaced. Also from Asthetic point of view, Pavers are good. Paving Blocks are generally used for Pedestrian, Parking, etc. Different types of manufacturing methods are now carried out to use some non-degradeable material. Plastic Waste is increasing day by day which pollutes the environment. So, it is very much important to implement these waste material such that it can be used for different purposes like recycling and reusing. The disposal of waste plastics (PET, PP, etc.) is a biggest challenge, as repeated recycling of PET bottles poses a potential danger of being transformed to a carcinogenic material and only a small proportion of PET bottles are being recycled. Because of costly conventional recycling techniques, there has been an increased demand for more scientific and innovative technologies to effectively recycle these materials. But it is not completely possible to reuse and recycle those waste again and again due to danger of cancer. In this project we will use plastic waste in the manufacturing of paving blocks for different shapes and compare their strengths.
