UTILISATION OF DOMESTIC WASTE MATERIAL IN RECYCLED CONCRETE : A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
The growing need for sustainable construction materials has led to increased research on the use of domestic waste in recycled concrete. This review paper examines the potential of incorporating household waste such as glass, plastics, ceramics, and organic residues into concrete production. Using these materials helps reduce landfill waste and supports a circular economy in the construction industry. Studies show that recycled aggregates from domestic waste can enhance concrete properties, including durability, strength, and workability, depending on processing methods and mixing proportions. However, challenges such as variations in waste composition, mechanical performance, and long-term durability must be addressed. This paper also explores advancements in treatment techniques, innovative concrete mix designs, and their compliance with construction standards. The findings suggest that integrating domestic waste into concrete is a viable approach for sustainable construction, reducing dependence on natural resources while maintaining structural integrity
