Researchers Use Recycled Glass to Develop New Eco-friendly 3D Printable Concrete.
Researchers from RMIT University have developed a new eco-friendly 3D printable concrete material that uses recycled glass as an aggregate.
Conventional concrete formulations tend to rely on natural river sand as a primary ingredient, but this resource is slowly becoming a scarce commodity and its use tends to have damaging effects on the environment. By opting for recycled glass particles instead, the RMIT team believes its work could propagate circular economy principles in the construction sector, bridging the benefits of 3D printing and sustainable concrete production.
