Effluent from rigs containing CCA and C-EPS saw significant increases in pH, EC and TDS measurements whilst improvements in DO, TSS, turbidity, COD, PO³₄− and SO²₄− were observed. All mean values except pH were, however, within the Maximum Permissible Levels (MPLs) of water pollutants discharged into the environment according to the Trinidad and Tobago Environmental Management Authority (EMA) or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA). In this regard, the CCA and C-EPS performed satisfactorily as sub-base materials in the permeable pavement rigs. It is noted, however, that further analysis is recommended through leaching tests on the recycled materials.]]> Tue, 25 May 2021 15:10:52 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1844106 https://trid.trb.org/View/1729730 Thu, 17 Sep 2020 17:53:57 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1729730 https://trid.trb.org/View/1672835 10 without considering its adverse effects on the SFE of bitumen. Inappropriate choice of probe liquids may result in incorrect SFE values of bitumen, thereby influencing its compatibility with aggregates. Therefore, the present study is strongly motivated to exhibit the application of CN approach for selecting appropriate probe liquids. Further investigating the impact of CN on aggregate-bitumen compatibility, the present research work also aims at validating CN approach. A polymer modified bitumen (i.e., PMB40) and two types of aggregates namely, quartzite and basalt aggregates were selected in this study. Five probe liquids namely, water, formamide, diiodomethane, ethylene glycol and glycerol were selected, which formed ten different combinations of probe liquid triplets. The CN of probe liquid triplets was calculated based on singular value decomposition (SVD) method. Thereafter, using the SFE of aggregates and bitumen, compatibility of basalt-PMB40 and quartzite-PMB40 was evaluated using compatibility ratio (CR) parameter. Results revealed that except for probe liquid triplets with CN<10, the aggregate-bitumen compatibility was highly inconsistent when evaluated using probe liquid triplets having CN>10. Therefore, the present study addresses the adverse effect of inappropriate selection of probe liquids on aggregate-bitumen compatibility and also validates the CN approach.]]> Sat, 21 Dec 2019 12:03:41 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1672835 https://trid.trb.org/View/1502623 Thu, 08 Mar 2018 10:46:45 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1502623 https://trid.trb.org/View/1502620 Thu, 08 Mar 2018 10:46:44 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/1502620
