Life-cycle assessment (LCA) of built-asset waste materials and
respective sustainable waste-disposal options are increasingly
important for an industry that generates a significant proportion
of all matter sent to landfill. Legislation-push from the
aggregates levy and landfill restrictions, together with
technology-pull from modern re-use and recycling techniques, will
continue to exert pressure on recycling rates for construction
waste and demolition materials. To recognise the potential of
construction and demolition waste as a resource, guidance is
needed. This book presents a guide to determining sustainable
options for the reduction, re-use, recycling and disposal of
demolition waste, and provides essential information related to:
the background variables influencing the waste management of
construction demolition waste; an assessment procedure setting-out
a method for determining sustainable disposal options; and, an
examination of the sub-divisions of demolition waste and respective
waste management routes in terms a Triple-Bottom-Line (TBL)
analysis of environmental impact, financial cost and social
safeguard legislation.
