Study of Effective Implementation of Reuse and Recycling of Construction and Demolition Waste Practices in India

Abstract

The construction sector worldwide is consuming a maximum amount of natural resources and energy. In this respect, the need for reuse and recycling of materials waste had increased over the years due to many infrastructural developments because of increase in rapid population and expansion. For environmental protection, some measures, like limiting the use of finite resources and managing waste disposal, has led to promote to recycle these materials at the end of their service life. For instance, many landfills are approaching their full capacity, with many planned to be closed over the next couple of years. This report presents a case study on the implementation of the construction and demolition waste management practices in the Indian construction sector. The scope was not only limited to the housing but also high rise structures. It is estimated that the waste generated by the housing sector is approximately 17 of the gross materials used, which is about 10 to 12 million tons year, and 32 of such waste has the potential for reuse and recycling. However, the high rise building construction generates construction waste in a large quantity of more than 20 million tons years which shows a high inherent for reusability and reprocessing.
