Abstract:
This Project Explores Innovative, Eco-friendly Solutions To Manage Riverbank Erosion In India Using Construction And Demolition (C&D) Waste. By Repurposing Waste Materials Like Concrete And Bricks, The Approach Aims To Reduce Environmental Pollution, Cut Costs, And Restore River Habitats. Although Still In Early Stages, This Sustainable Method Holds Great Promise For Protecting Rivers While Promoting Circular Use Of Resources. Riverbank Erosion And Habitat Degradation Are Pressing Environmental Issues That Threaten Ecosystems And Human Settlements Alike. This Project Explores The Innovative Utilization Of Construction And Demolition (C&D) Waste As A Sustainable And Cost-effective Solution For River Erosion Control And Habitat Restoration. Traditionally Viewed As A Disposal Challenge, C&D Waste Comprising Concrete, Brick, Metal, And Asphalt Can Be Repurposed To Stabilize Riverbanks, Reduce Sediment Load, And Create Microhabitats For Aquatic And Riparian Species. This Study Assesses The Mechanical Properties And Ecological Compatibility Of Various C&D Materials And Demonstrates Their Effectiveness Through Case Studies, Lab Testing, And Field Pilot Installations. Emphasis Is Placed On Modular Gabion Structures, Artificial Reefs, And Vegetated Revetments Made From Processed Waste Materials.
