TL;DR: In this paper, the novelty of using waste cooking oil (WCO), which is frequently found as a polluting waste material in landfills and rivers from the food industry, to rejuvenate the bituminous binder was investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of incorporating waste plastic bottles (Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)) on the engineering properties of stone mastic asphalt (SMA) mixture was determined.

TL;DR: Using 3-4% of WCO the aged bitumen group 40/50 was rejuvenated to a condition that closely resembled the physical, rheological properties of the original bitumen, however, there was a difference in the tendency to ageing between the WCO rejuvenated bitumen and the virgin bitumen during mixing, transport and laying on the road.

TL;DR: A review of the use of polymers in asphalt pavement can be found in this article, where a critical review on the history and benefits of using waste and virgin polymer in asphalt is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental research on the application of waste plastic bottles (Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)) as an additive in stone mastic asphalt (SMA) is presented, where wheel tracking, moisture susceptibility, resilient modulus and drain down tests were carried out on the mixtures that included various percentages of waste PET as 0, 2, 4, 6, 8% and 10% by weight of bitumen content.
