Of over 20 million tons of mixed construction and demolition waste generated annually, only 5% is recycled and less than 1% is adopted for low-grade construction activities. This innovative research aims to solve Australia’s mixed construction and demolition waste disposal problem and lower its greenhouse-gas emissions at the same time. The research develops Het-Gregate with novel chemical admixtures and greenhouse-gas emissions to create Het-Crete, with new mixing techniques for its an optimal performance high-grade concrete. Life-cycle analyses will be conducted to generate Het-Crete specifications for the industry. This will significantly elevate Australia’s world standing in recycled concrete research.

每年产生超过2000万吨的混合建筑和拆除废物，其中只有5%被回收利用，不到1%被用于低等级建筑活动。这项创新研究旨在解决澳大利亚的混合建筑和拆除废物处理问题，并降低其排放量。该研究开发了具有新型化学外加剂和温室气体排放的 Het-Gregate，并采用新的混合技​​术来实现最佳性能的高级混凝土的生命周期分析。将为该行业制定 Het-Crete 规范，这将显着提升澳大利亚在再生混凝土研究领域的世界地位。
