A Review paper on Energy and Cost Optimization of Construction and Demolition Waste

Author(s) Vrushabesh A C, Akshaykumar V Hanagodimath
Country India
Abstract The rapid growth of the construction industry has intensified the demand for natural resources and led to substantial waste generation from construction and demolition (C&D) activities. This review addresses the dual challenge of managing C&D waste sustainably while reducing energy use and costs associated with recycling. The focus is on optimizing the recycling of C&D materials, such as concrete and steel, within the Indian construction context, where rapid urbanization has exacerbated waste management issues. The study employs Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) to assess the environmental and economic implications of using recycled versus conventional materials, with metrics including embodied energy, carbon emissions, and financial impact. Additionally, the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is used to determine efficient recycling routes and plant locations, demonstrating the advantages of recycled aggregates in reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions. This review promotes a circular economy model, providing a framework for sustainable resource management and a pathway toward reduced environmental impact in India’s construction sector.
