Full-Depth Reclamation With Lime Kiln Dust

In this third article in a series on asphalt recycling, the author examines the use of full-depth reclamation with lime kiln dust in the city of Xenia, Ohio. Due to weather conditions and heavy use, many asphalt pavement roads require major rehabilitation or complete reconstruction. Thin asphalt overlays or surface treatments were not suitable due to the extensive amount of pavement distress. Thicker asphalt overlays would require the costly replacement of existing curbs and gutters. The solution was full-depth reclamation incorporating lime kiln dust as a chemical soil-stabilization agent to add strength to the recycled flexible pavement. The article describes the substantial cost differences and why lime kiln dust was used in this city’s road projects.
