Abstract

Millions of tonnes of recycle aggregate and glass garbage are produced each year, which causes enormous issues with the global ecology. Utilising recycled aggregates made from construction and demolition waste can help protect natural aggregate supplies, lessen the need for landfill space, and promote sustainable building practises. Silica makes up a large portion of the glass. Its application in concrete might be a good way to address environmental and economic issues. Recycled aggregate (RA) and waste glass powder concrete (WG) are thoroughly reviewed in terms of their history, processes for recycling, reusing, manufacturing, physical, mechanical and durability properties of the materials. Fresh concrete workability, physical property (such as density), mechanical characteristics (such as compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strength as well as elastic modulus), and durability property (such as Impermeability, Chloride penetration and carbonation resistance). Municipal waste glass, plastic, and demolition concrete from structure member of buildings and bridge concrete block make up the majority of this waste. After being used once, all of these are difficult to dispose of into land. The reuse of such waste in the production of concrete is known to be an extremely successful means of controlling these kinds of situations. Some of the elements of the concrete can be replaced completely or partially with these wastes. In addition to contributing in the management of solid waste, recycling these waste materials for use in concrete helps to protect the availability of natural resources. This review paper will explain how waste materials are used as resources in the manufacturing of concrete.
