Benchmarking of materials composition and transportation influences on Life Cycle Assessment of Recycled Aggregate Concrete
Résumé
Construction and demolition wastes constitute one of the largest waste streams within the developed countries[1], [2]. Resources economy and waste management incite to their recovery as recycled aggregates to be re-introduced into new concrete. This paper aims to compare the environmental impacts related to the composition of concrete to ones due to the transportation of the recycled aggregates, issued from demolition wastes, by implementing a life cycle assessment (LCA)[3]. This study is linked to the RECYBETON French Research Project involving public research laboratories, institutes and private companies. The final RECYBETON aim is to edit recommendations promoting the complete recycling of concrete as part of circular economy [4].
