Experimental Investigation of Bitumen by Using E-Waste Plastic as Filler

Abstract

Abstract Electronic waste or simply e-waste management is one of the various challenges due to the unexpected surge in the electronic products. In our day-to-day life, the electronic components plays the predominant role in every human being. Peoples activities are daily determined by the personal computers, mobile phones, and gadgets etc., All these issues are drastically affect the human health and environment. The disposal of these e-wastes creates the huge environmental loss and harmful to use for the any purpose. For these improper disposals, the solution for these electronic products is in the usage of the concrete.This research paper is to examine the strength of bitumen by using E-Waste plastic as filler. In this experiment, Polyethylene plastic is used which is thermoplastic polymer and it is the most widely produced plastic in the world. Marshall Stability test is taken to analyze the strength of bitumen. The stability and flow value of bitumen is tested for various bitumen percentage with constant 5% E-Waste plastic filler. From the test values the stability and flow value of bitumen is optimum in 5% in addition to the strength of bitumen is increased to 10% than the conventional bitumen.
