Feasibility of using phytoremediation biomass for sustainable biofuel production via thermochemical conversion

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 1010-1026, July/August 2024.
Abstract This study explores a novel approach that combines soil recovery with biofuel production, presenting a strategy that addresses the increasing demand for biofuels while sidestepping the food–fuel debate. It also introduces an innovative method for recovering heavy metals from soils through their translocation into the solid product of the ...

Correlative ageing analysis of thermally treated and rejuvenated bitumen and asphalt

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
While a high content of reclaimed asphalt in road construction is targeted, recycled bitumen has often undergone chemical and physical damages characterized as ageing. This can be counteracted with additives denoted as rejuvenators and by controlling the

A Review of the Studies on the Effect of Different Additives on the Fatigue Behavior of Asphalt Mixtures

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The fatigue phenomenon significantly weakens road pavement due to repeated reloading. To enhance fatigue resistance, numerous studies have explored various additives in asphalt mixtures. This review focuses on key variables influencing the effectiveness of additives, including fibers, polymers, nanomaterials, waste materials, and biomaterials, in ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) based microstructural and micromechanical analysis of bitumen during ageing and rejuvenation [PDF]

open access: yes
Aging deteriorates the performance of bitumen whereas rejuvenation can partially restore these properties. Although the macroscale properties of bitumen ageing and rejuvenation have been well documented, the microscale mechanisms are still not well ...
