This guide provides good practice advice to maximise recovery rates for concrete from construction and demolition (C&D) projects by improving crushing, screening and stockpiling processes.
The aim is to assist the operators of crushing and screening systems to adopt practices that:
- maximise operational efficiency and the amount of concrete crushed and screened into chip product
- minimise contamination and maximise the quality of the chip product
- avoid or minimise environmental and nuisance effects from processing and storage
This guide covers:
- finding good markets for waste concrete
- collection and transportation services
- heath and safety hurdles
- resources and contacts
