Construction and Demolition

Waste Management
Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling for
a Sustainable Future
Presented by: [Your Name]
Date: [Insert Date]
Introduction

• Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste = materials from construction,


renovation, demolition.
• Essential to manage waste to minimize environmental harm.
• Significant contributor to global waste footprint.
Sources of C&D Waste

• Construction: new buildings, bridges, infrastructure.


• Demolition: removal of old structures.
• Renovation: alterations and retrofitting.
• Maintenance: repair works generating waste.
• Common waste: concrete, wood, bricks, metals, plastics.
Environmental Impact

• Overburdened landfills and land occupation.


• Soil, groundwater, and air pollution.
• Resource depletion: energy, raw materials.
• Contributes significantly to carbon emissions.
Objectives of Waste Management

• Reduce waste generation at the source.


• Promote reuse, recycling, and recovery.
• Enhance environmental protection.
• Drive sustainable urban development.
Waste Management Hierarchy

• 1. Reduce: Prevent waste creation.


• 2. Reuse: Materials in their original form.
• 3. Recycle: Reprocessing into new products.
• 4. Recover: Extract useful resources.
• 5. Dispose: Final step, to be minimized.
Strategies for C&D Waste
Management
• Material selection and optimization.
• Prefabrication and modular construction.
• Deconstruction over demolition.
• On-site waste sorting and segregation.
Recycling and Reuse of Materials

• Concrete recycled into road base or aggregate.


• Wood repurposed into panel products or energy.
• Metal melted for reformation.
• Brick reused for landscaping and construction.
Technologies in Waste
Management
• Advanced onsite crushers and separators.
• Mobile waste processing units.
• Waste tracking digital platforms.
• Automated material recovery facilities.
Challenges in Managing C&D
Waste
• Economic constraints and investment costs.
• Limited awareness among stakeholders.
• Lack of standardized methods and practices.
• Regulatory and enforcement gaps.
Government Policies and
Regulations
• India: C&D Waste Management Rules (2016).
• EU: Waste Framework Directive.
• Incentives for green buildings and recycling.
• Penalties for non-compliance.
Case Studies

• City X: 75% C&D material recycled, reducing landfill usage.


• Project Y: Sustainable deconstruction practices saving costs.
• Green Building Project Z: Integrated C&D waste strategy.
Future of C&D Waste Management

• AI-driven sorting and resource recovery.


• Increase in circular economy practices.
• More widespread green certification adoption.
• Innovations in sustainable material alternatives.
Role of Stakeholders

• Government: Regulations, monitoring, incentives.


• Construction companies: Sustainable practices.
• Public: Awareness and segregation of waste.
• Recyclers: Efficient material recovery.
Emerging Trends

• Blockchain for waste tracking.


• Zero-waste construction sites.
• Biodegradable construction materials.
• Green demolition certifications.
Conclusion

• Sustainable C&D waste management is critical.


• Needs cooperation across government, industry, and public.
• Towards a greener construction industry.
