A Calculation Approach of Embodied Energy, Carbon Emission and Eco-Costs on Waste Recycled Composite Materials

The issue of waste recycling has recently become a major topic of research, particularly regarding building material technology. From the subject, numerous studies discussed recycling waste into building components, for instance, wall panels, mixed concrete material, concrete bricks, etc. Neverthele...
