Beneficial Use Of Recycled Materials In Transportation Applications Conference to be held November 13-15, 2001 in Washington, DC.

这笔赠款用于支持将于2001年11月13日至15日在华盛顿特区举行的题为“可回收材料在交通应用中的有益使用”的会议。这次会议的主要赞助商是联邦公路管理局通过位于北卡罗来纳大学的回收材料资源中心(RMRC)。会议将集中讨论与在公路环境(如人行道、路堤、流动填料和附属物)中使用不同类型的再生材料(例如沥青路面、再生混凝土、轮胎、受污染的土壤、火山灰、矿渣、铸造砂、城市固体废物灰、建筑和拆卸集料、玻璃、瓦片和堆肥)有关的研究和政策议题。这次会议将汇集教育工作者、学生、研究人员和实践者，他们对与交通部门回收材料使用相关的研究和政策感兴趣。将出版一期研究期刊的特刊或一本书，其中包含来自会议的同行评议论文。另一个结果将是一份研究需求白皮书将与会议文件一起发布。本白皮书还将分发给感兴趣的联邦和州机构。***

This grant provides support for a conference entitled "Beneficial Use of Recycled Materials in Transportation Applications) to be held November 13-15, 2001 in Washington, DC. The primary sponsor of the conference is the Federal Highway Administration through the Recycled Materals Resource Center (RMRC) at UNH. The conference will focus on research and policy topics related to the use of different types of recycled materials (e.g. asphalt pavement, reclaimed concrete, tires, contaminated soils, coal ash, slags, foundry sands, municipal solid waste ash, construction and demolition aggregates, glass, shingles and compost) in the highway environment (e.g. pavements, embankments, flowable fills and appurtenances). The conference will bring together educators, students, researchers and practitioners interested in research and policy associated with recycled materials use in the transportation sector. A special issue of a research journal, or a book, will be published containing peer-reviewed papers from the conference. Another outcome will be a research needs white paper to be published with the conference papers. This white paper will also be distributed to interested Federal and state agencies. ***
