Application of fine-grained recycled glass in asphalt pavements

Original language description

Glass is a homogenous and amorphous material (doesn´t crystallize) obtained by supercooling of a melted liquid mixture consisting primarily of a glass sand dominated by siliceous dioxide and sodium carbonate. This destination product is used and known in final products like window panels, glass bottles etc. or even from photovoltaic panels which differs in the technical parameters the glass has. For many times, glass is recyclable very well and is often re-used by the industry in regular basis. Increasing pressure to recycle more waste materials or to increase the recyclability rates and minimize the amount of materials placed in landfills are the motivation for re-use waste glass in pavement structures as well. For wide range of applications, reclaimed glass may be consider as an additive or fine-grained admixture for road construction in form of crushed or even milled (pulverized) glass. In this paper results of an experimental study are presented, where fine-grained glass from old photovoltaic panels was used in an optimized ACbin 16 asphalt mixture. Mineral additives in the form of filler contained in designed mixture were completely replaced by the fine-grained glass particles and the effect of selected characteristics was determined. For impact assessment of crushed glass three types of reclaimed crushed glass were selected – foam glass, as well as amorphous and polycrystalline silicon (glass) from photovoltaic panels. Comparison of performance behavior of asphalt concrete mixture was provided. The testing included empirical characteristics and mechanical or functional characteristics especially stiffness modulus, resistance to water susceptibility and resistance to crack propagation. For the determination of the ageing resistance and thermal sensitivity of the added crushed glass in the asphalt mixture, long-term simulation of ageing was processed following laboratory conditions.
