Aggregate recycling involves processing construction and demolition waste, such as concrete and asphalt, into reusable materials. This practice conserves natural resources by reducing the need for virgin aggregate extraction and minimizes landfill waste. The recycled aggregate is commonly used in road bases, backfill, and new concrete production. It is a cornerstone of sustainable construction, offering significant environmental and economic benefits by supporting a circular economy and reducing the carbon footprint of building projects.
In Russia, there is a lot of demand for sorting construction and demolition waste for recycling and production of new products. We, AIShred (belonging to GEP Ecotech), have had many cases of construction and demolition waste treatment in Russia, China, Indonesia, Canada and other regions. Unlike other companies engaged in mining machinery (if you buy equipment from China, you may know that many Chinese suppliers used to focus on the aggregate recycling and mining fields), AIShred focuses on providing solid waste recycling equipment, so we are more professional in providing C&D waste recycling plant. As shown in the picture above, this is the rendering of the Stationary C&D waste recycling plant we designed for a customer from Russia, which can handle pure construction waste and mixed construction waste. Final products include recycled aggregates, sand, metals, combustible materials, etc. We provide customers with many different options of construction waste sorting and recycling plants, free design solutions,
Solid waste from construction, demolition, maintenance and renovation activities not only takes up valuable urban space, but can also lead to soil and groundwater contamination, and many of the valuable materials it contains are a waste of resources. Resourceful disposal of construction and demolition waste can recover most valuable materials and reduce landfill space and environmental pollution.Construction and demolition waste consists of slag, mortar, wood, steel, concrete, gypsum, brick and tile, asphalt and metal, which can be sorted and crushed to achieve metal recovery; brick, tile, concrete and stone can be made into sand and gravel aggregates, mortar or building fill; and combustible materials such as waste wood, plastic and leather fabric can be made into alternative fuels.GEP ECOTECH's shredding, crushing and screening technology makes it easy to tackle the challenges of construction and demolition waste disposal, with easy crushing, efficient sorting and 100% recycling targets.
