An Innovative Technique to Utilize E-Plastic as Construction Material: A Review

Abstract

Rapid growth of technology, up gradation in latest innovation of electrical industry in 21st century has led one of fastest growing waste stream in world commonly known as E waste. People became so techno geek that they cannot live without electronic gadget, from mobile phone to microwave, from television to telecommunication, and after their life ends, it became trash. We generate about 40 million tons of e waste every year and 30% of its part is made of plastic around 1.2 million tons of plastic and on the other side due to wide use of concrete as constructional element, accessibility of raw material is being questioned, their fore an attempt has been taken to fulfill both requirement, making concrete economical and less effective to environment. This article gives an overview of utilization of waste electronic plastic in concrete mixture as coarse aggregate. This solves the landfill problems, pollution and save economy. The use of waste material in concrete not only makes concrete economical but also helps in dumping of plastic.
