Vancouver began testing a new warm mix asphalt technique that uses 20% less heat for production and incorporates recycled plastic. The process extracts wax from recycled plastics to add to asphalt. Vancouver has paved several streets with this recycled material asphalt and will continue trials, aiming to make the city greener by reducing waste and using recycled content in infrastructure projects.

SolarWindow Technologies develops see-through solar windows for residential and commercial buildings that can generate electricity. Their mission is to produce large amounts of clean energy through their window products. The company aims to provide an alternative to crude oil by making any glass surface a solar panel.
COOL PAVEMENTS
The document discusses cool pavements, which are pavement surfaces designed to reflect more solar energy and stay cooler than traditional pavements. It describes different types of cool pavements including modified asphalt, concrete, porous materials, and surfaces with added coloring, vegetation, or coatings. Cool pavements can help reduce the urban heat island effect and have benefits like decreased air temperatures and energy savings. Costs vary depending on the specific cool pavement technology and installation factors.

JK Tyre & Industries Ltd. operates 6 plants in India with a total capacity of 860 metric tons per day and 3 plants in Mexico with a capacity of 290 metric tons per day. The tyre manufacturing process involves key utility services like steam, hot/cold water, air, and electricity. It also involves processes like mixing rubber in a Banbury mixer, dipping fabric to strengthen it, building the green tyre using various components, vulcanizing the green tyre in a curing press to set its shape and tread, and final finishing steps like trimming and inspection.

This document summarizes Mohawk Industries' sustainability efforts, including producing solar energy, recycling plastic bottles, diverting waste, and achieving zero waste goals in their facilities. It outlines Mohawk's leadership in product transparency through the Declare label and in offering red list free products. The timeline shows Mohawk transitioning through recycling, transparency, and now living product eras. It promotes Mohawk's partnership with the Living Building Challenge and registration of their first LBC project. In the end, it notes that while sustainability was initially the right thing to do, it has increased Mohawk's sales, market size, and return on investment.

The document summarizes a tunnel boring machine being used by National Grid for an infrastructure project in Buffalo, New York. The 13'9", 29 ton machine excavates soil and stone using a cutter head and grinds the material into a slurry mixture. As it progresses, the machine installs sections of pipe to line the tunnel using a hydraulic jacking frame in a stop-and-go process. The project represents National Grid's first use of such a machine and is part of a larger initiative to upgrade the city's aging electrical system along Ohio Street at a cost of around $11 million.

Creativity involves generating new ideas, while innovation is implementing those ideas. The presentation explores historical examples of creative Muslims and Arabs. It also examines barriers to creativity like negative attitudes, fear of failure, and overreliance on logic. Finally, the presentation suggests having curiosity, flexibility, and seeing problems as interesting to boost creativity.
Reviewing the Technology of Anti-ice in Cold High Altitude Road
The icy roads will reduce road adhesion coefficient, causing traffic accidents because of skidding of vehicle. Road technology of anti-ice and anti-skid at home and abroad are reviewed in this paper, and the advantages and disadvantages of all kinds of technology are analyzed. Meanwhile the new domestic technology of anti-ice and anti-skid is introduced.

partial replacement of aggregates by recycled concrete
This document discusses innovative green concrete made through partial replacement of aggregates with recycled concrete. Green concrete reduces environmental impact by using less energy in production and emitting less carbon dioxide than traditional concrete. It can be made by replacing up to 15% of aggregates with recycled concrete without affecting the concrete's compressive strength after 28 days. Potential applications of green concrete include construction of bridges, buildings, columns, and roads.

The document discusses the development of sustainable high-performance green concrete using fly ash and waste glass powder. It reviews literature that has partially replaced cement with fly ash or waste glass powder, and used waste glass as a partial replacement for fine aggregates. The literature found that these replacements improved strength and durability while reducing environmental impact. The document outlines the materials and methodology used in previous studies on green concrete, which measured properties like strength, workability and durability at various ages.

This document summarizes an experimental investigation on no-fines concrete with tire rubber as a partial replacement for coarse aggregate and sodium silicate as an admixture. No-fines concrete is a lightweight concrete that does not contain fine aggregates. The study aims to determine the optimum mix of no-fines concrete for partial replacement of coarse aggregate with tire rubber based on compressive, split tensile, and flexural strength testing. Various mix designs were tested where coarse aggregate was replaced by tire rubber at rates of 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5% by weight. The specimens were tested after 7, 14, and 28 days of curing and results were compared to conventional no-fines concrete. The results showed

Portland cement is the most widely used type of cement and is the key binding ingredient in concrete. It is made through a process of grinding various materials like limestone and clay into a fine powder and heating them in a kiln to form clinker, which is then cooled and ground to produce cement. Concrete, comprised of cement, water, and aggregates like sand and gravel, is the most consumed man-made material and is essential for building infrastructure around the world. Significant advancements in concrete technology over the last 50 years have improved its quality and performance.
Automation in Clay and Thermal Industry Waste Products
Construction is a part of
infrastructure, which is essential to promote
growth in the economy. India is one of the fastest
growing economies in the world. The scope of
Infrastructure industry is enormous, as the Indian
Industry has been witnessing a large growth. As
the industries tend to cluster around the cities and
their suburbs, the local governments are pressed
for providing facilities for Housing,
Communication, Power, Water supplies and other
facilities. A competitive, market oriented and
rationalized construction tomorrow requires the
development of automated and robotized
construction system today. This includes
industrialized process originating in a mining,
construction material production, prefabrication
of construction components, on site construction,
facility management, and rehabilitation and
recycling. In today’s construction projects are
characterized by short design and build period,
increased demands of quality and low cost.

- 2. Innovations in Asphalt, By Stuart Val Staker Several months ago, Vancouver began testing a new paving process using “warm mix” technology. While traditional asphalt requires high temperatures to keep it liquefied, warm mix asphalt uses 20 percent less heat since it can be produced at lower temperatures. This technique has existed for some time; however, Vancouver has incorporated a new green element to the warm mix paving process: post-consumer recycled plastic. The Toronto-based company GreenMantra Technologies has identified a technique to extract wax from recycled plastics and transform it into asphalt. Vancouver has used the substance to pave several stretches of road throughout the city and will continue trials throughout 2013. Paving its streets with recycled materials will put Vancouver on the road to its goal of becoming the greenest city in the world by 2020.
