Purpose and goal
In the project, we will characterize and combine bio-based and recycled raw materials with the aim of creating materials for road surfaces with a smaller proportion of fossil and virgin binders. The goal is to be able to test these directly in road surfaces in a public environment in a subsequent project.
Expected effects and result
The project highlights technology solutions for characterization, work environment measurement and handling of bio-based products in the production chain. By the fact that producers of bio-based components in the project collaborate directly with entrepreneurs and that the client side is also involved, the project contributes to an increased understanding and knowledge that accelerates the transition.
Planned approach and implementation
The project will be implemented in four work packages: 1. Production of materials and evaluation of compatibility 2 Asphalt technical evaluation 3 Emissions 4 Project management
