| Abstract |
Since the middle of 1990's, the construction wastes have rapidly increased due to the revitalization and redevelopment. Therefore, it has recently been important issue to recycle the rapid increase of construction waste. In addition, restriction of the carbon dioxide generation spread all of the industries, as to United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and Kyoto Protocol, This study identified and analyzed quantities of the carbon dioxide generated from production of aggregate through construction waste site-recycling facilities, recycling company, and stony mountain company. The results of this study indicated that the important factors affecting the generation of the carbon dioxide were the number of carrying passage by volume of aggregates and the carrying distance. Due to the shortest carrying distance of the site-recycling, that the generation of the carbon dioxide from production of aggregates through the site-recycling is smallest. |
