Abstract

The research and experimentation for the use of waste materials for the realization of products related to construction and architecture has been proceeding, for several years, in the direction of a cross-cutting of the secondary materials, drawing not only on the consolidated recoveries and reuse from construction and demolition, but elaborating processes that bring into play unexpected and versatile resources through which, the reworking of architectural models linked to new and futuristic technological and functional needs of building, are bound to the imperative need to dispose of waste materials , coming from the most disparate production processes. The objective, which today seems utopian, to reinsert all the waste produced in the production cycle, is configured as more realistic in the face of interesting and curious experiments that rework the most unexpected undifferentiated materials, such as diapers or waste from agri-food processing. The improvement of the transformation processes of the products coming from the differentiated collection of the packaging is much more concrete, for which the aim is to minimize or even cancel the use of energy and water resources during the transformation in order to make the use of it more convenient and ecological. and performance is always more performing. Components for concrete such as glass foam spheres, deriving from the expansion treatment of glass scraps, high impact polystyrene HIPS, undifferentiated plastic microspheres for asphalt, light partition blocks from the compacting of plastic bags, treatment of paper and tetrapack wrappers, such as newspaperwood and other panels made from cellulose fibers with specialized performance levels. The deductions of this discussion are aimed at critically evaluating the concrete applicability of the experiments underway.
