Abstract
Recycling can benefit community and the environment. “Reduce, reuse, recycle” is the mantra we often hear every time there’s a discussion about recycling. Reducing waste means not only to reduce the volume of waste that goes to the landfills, but it also means decreasing the amount of dangerous chemicals that seep into the soil and pollute the air due to improper waste disposal. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive overview of current methods for reusing and recycling construction and demolition (C&D) waste materials. Construction and demolition practices are also examined along with policies and legislation influencing C&D waste management. This thesis examines many of the waste materials produced by the Industrial, Commercial & Institutional sector. A particular effort was made to describe C&D waste recycling methods which are not widely practiced.
