Recycling Spent Coffee Grounds on Permeable Interlocking Concrete Paving Blocks
Advances in Environmental and Engineering Research, 2023 Decomposition of spent coffee grounds (SCGs), a byproduct of brewing coffee, in disposed landfill sites releases significant amounts of potent greenhouse gases. This study aims to investigate the maximum recycling proportions of SCGs, a nonconventional filler material, for permeable interlocking concrete paving (PICP) blocks. These blocks have a porous
