Title:
The Development of Recycled Oyster Waste in Modified Concrete Towards Enhanced
Mechanical Properties and Environmental Benefits
There are two parts:
1. Project Objectives and Pathways to Impact Statement
(a) Project Objectives (1000 words)
1. Study the viability of utilising recycled oyster waste to change the qualities of concrete
and roads;
2. Assess the physical and mechanical properties of the transformed concrete, including
penetration, softening point, flash and fire point, viscosity, specific gravity and
rheological properties;
3. Examine the oyster waste model planning and pre-treatment approaches and
enhancement of the reused oyster waste binders;
4. Examine the mechanical properties of the changed concrete, including ductility,
flexibility, strength, and impact resistance in building construction and roadways;
5. Define the optimum combination of the mixture of reused oyster waste and cement;
6. Compare and analyse the mechanical properties of the modified concrete with the
conventional concrete.
