The asphalt industry has long been challenged with finding sustainable solutions to enhance the performance of asphalt mixtures while mitigating their environmental impact. One promising avenue is the incorporation of waste filler materials into asphalt mixtures. This review explores the feasibility and effectiveness of utilizing waste filler in asphalt mixtures, focusing on its effects on the mechanical characteristics, durability, and sustainability of asphalt pavements. Various waste filler materials, such as rice husk ash, fly ash, and construction and demolition wastes, have been examined in terms of their potential as substitutes for traditional filler materials such as limestone and mineral powders. This review synthesizes literature to assess the impact of waste fillers on the performance of asphalt mixtures, including rutting resistance, fatigue behavior, moisture susceptibility, and aging characteristics. This work begins by examining the interaction of the asphalt fillers to provide clarification. The usage of various waste fillers is then examined. With fewer harmful environmental consequences than traditional cement manufacturing has, waste filler materials improve the strength and durability of asphalt mixtures. This research underscores the promising future of waste filler materials as environmentally friendly and innovative materials. To fully capitalize on their benefits, further research, standardization, and widespread use of waste filler-based products are necessary. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
