Read moreConstruction and demolition waste (C&D waste) primarily consist of debris that is collected during construction, renovation, and demolition of roads, bridges, and buildings, for example, materials such as:
C&D Waste, mainly heavy bulk materials, contains a mixture of mineral and non-mineral materials that can be quickly recovered, reused, and recycled.
After concrete, wood waste is the second-largest component of C&D debris, and it contributes approximately 25% of the recyclable building-related construction and demolition waste total.
There are a lot of opportunities and challenges to recycling construction and demolition waste into usable end products.
Everyone in the construction and demolition industry can contribute by reducing waste, using materials better, and collecting waste for recycling.
Construction and demolition waste form one of the most significant waste streams. Growing environmental awareness and increasing landfill costs make recycling this waste a steady business opportunity.
The general purpose of C&D waste recycling is to process the input into valuable materials such as wood, RDF, paper, and ferrous and non-ferrous metals and minimize the waste fraction sent to landfills.
Technology for the separation and recovery of construction and demolition waste is well established, readily accessible, and in general inexpensive.
There are two groups of C&D recycling systems available, stationary and portable.
C&D recycling companies produce valuable materials such as wood chips, aggregates, and metals.
For C&D recycling companies, concrete recycling is becoming an increasingly popular way to utilize aggregate left behind when demolished structures or roadways.
The most common type of C&D wood generated is dimensional lumber. Still, plywood, treated wood, and manufactured wood such as composite panels can come into a C&D recycling company.
Ferrous and non-ferrous metals can be sorted out from construction and demolition waste with a well-designed recovery process.
It is challenging to find a source covering all aspects of the construction and demolition waste recycling industry.
C&D recycling news covers all recoverable construction and demolition (C&D) materials generated globally.
These materials include concrete, asphalt, asphalt shingles, gypsum wallboard, wood, and metals.
Access to news on breakthrough technologies in construction and demolition recycling is crucial for any recycling industry professional.
