Highway trial sections: Performance evaluation of warm mix asphalt and recycled warm mix asphalt

Construction and Building Materials, 2020
Abstract The present article presents the construction and evaluation of an experimental stretch of highway with environmentally sustainable mixes; warm mixes asphalt and recycled warm mixes asphalt. Six trial sections of an urban highway were constructed with different structural characteristics. Each section was 15 cm thick and 90 m long.

Warm mix asphalt: an overview

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2012
One of the causes of pollution associated with the construction of transportation infrastructures is the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Even though the use of Warm Mix Asphalt technology has many advantages that are not related to the reduction of gas emissions, WMA technology is also good for the environment because it produces ...

High temperature characteristics of warm mix asphalt mixtures with nanoclay and chemical warm mix asphalt modified binders

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2016
Abstract With the rising price of energy and the effects of global warming, the demands for the use of warm mix asphalt (WMA) in the construction of pavements have been steadily increasing throughout the world. Due to this, many agencies have been looking forward to implementing WMA technology as a way to promote green culture in every aspect of the ...

Evaluation of Asphalt Emulsion for Use in Warm Mix Asphalt

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Temperature grows up and climate changes year by year as result of global warming. One of the main reasons is the carbon dioxide emission. How to overcome global warming effect by means of energy conservation and carbon reduction is one of the important subjects and one of government's important administrative policies.

Warm Mix Asphalt

2014
Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) technologies have potential to reduce the application temperature of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) and improve workability without compromising the performance of asphalt pavement. This promises various benefits, e.g. a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, decreased energy consumption and costs, improved working conditions, better ...

The use of recycled plastics in warm mix asphalt

International Conference on Road and Rail Infrastructure
The production of plastic in the world has increased exponentially over the last fifty years, and the amount of plastic waste has increased accordingly. Governments around the world are beginning to ban single-use plastics, while investing in the development of waste management facilities and promoting recycling practices.

Evaluation of a warm-mix asphalt additive

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2008
Although several warm-mix asphalt projects have been explored in the USA, Europe, and some countries in Asia, there is a need for the research to evaluate the applicability of warm-mix asphalt in Thailand. In this study, the fundamental properties of bitumen modified with one of the commonly used additives (Sasobit, a long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbon (

Effectiveness of Advera in Warm Mix Asphalt

Emerging Technologies for Material, Design, Rehabilitation, and Inspection of Roadway Pavements, 2011
Benefits of warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies in terms of energy savings and air quality improvements are highly promising. However, further investigations are needed to validate their performance as rheological and viscoelastic data are significantly lacking for material conditions in Oklahoma. To this end, effects of dosage levels of a WMA additive,
