ScienceMissouri Engineers Use Waste Cooking Oil to Boost Asphalt Recycling
In 2019, engineers from Missouri and Iran demonstrated that waste cooking oil can soften aged asphalt binder, enabling road mixes with 60% to 100% recycled pavement. Their lab study, published in the Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering, showed that cooking oil helps incorporate large amounts of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), reducing the need for new materials in road construction.
