Cold Recycling of Bituminous Pavement With Foamed Bitumen

Prof. (Dr.) Dharamveer Singh & Purbayan Ghosh Mondal, Post-doctoral Fellow, Department of Civil Engineering, IIT Bombay, give insights on Cold Recycling of Bituminous Pavements, particularly with foamed bitumen (FB), which has emerged as a promising solution to address both environmental concerns and budget constraints.

 

Cold Recycling of Bituminous Pavements

 

Introduction

The global expansion of road infrastructure and its environmental implications underscore the urgent need to prioritize the construction of sustainable and environmentally friendly pavements. In the last few decades, pavement maintenance and rehabilitation have emerged as significant challenges confronting highway agencies. This is particularly because of the acute depletion of raw materials and the increased price of road-building materials (such as bitumen) over the last decade.
