Decontamination, Drying and Sterilization Assisted by the High Frequency Electromagnetic Field for the Processing of Construction Waste Used on Driveways

摘要

In this paper a series of laboratory tests were made using the high-frequency electromagnetic field to decontaminate, dry and sterilize of demolition materials as well as to determine physical properties and performance of demolition materials to see their potential use. This article examines the use of materials resulting from the demolition of concrete waste byproducts as a new source of building materials used in road construction. The amount of construction waste grows each year, while natural rocks are becoming more and more expensive. Recycled concrete from various sources, such as construction and demolition waste, is a good option that can be used as a foundation for road construction. The experimental results demonstrate that the materials in the selected concrete waste are suitable for use as base layers and flexible pavement substrates in road construction.
