The "Eco-asphalt" project is being implemented in Uzbekistan to introduce waste recycling and ecological technologies.This method is used to recycle polyethylene and other plastic waste and add it to the asphalt composition.The project aims to reduce road construction costs and reduce environmental impact.
Asphalt with the addition of plastic reduces bitumen consumption and saves up to 30% of construction costs.Such asphalt will be heat and frost resistant, crack resistant, and durable.Along with environmental efficiency, the quality of infrastructure is expected to improve.
Such solutions were previously tested in the Netherlands, India, and other countries and yielded positive results.Widespread implementation in Uzbekistan is said to contribute to environmental sustainability.The project can also have a positive impact on the national economy.
