Utilization of Industrial Waste in Highway Construction

The textbook "Utilization of Industrial Waste in Highway Construction" offers a comprehensive analysis of the use of industrial waste, particularly copper slag, to improve soils in road construction. Given the challenges associated with soil stabilization, especially for black cotton soils, the book explores innovative approaches to utilizing waste materials. Authors Chandresh Solanki, Yogendra Tandel, and Jignesh Patel highlight the physical, chemical, and geotechnical properties of copper slag and its potential to address disposal issues in the industry. By integrating such materials into road construction, not only is the environment preserved, but sustainable resource management is also promoted. This book is aimed at professionals and students in the fields of civil engineering, environmental sciences, and materials science who are engaged in the sustainable use of waste.
