ABSTRACT:
A method of recycling construction and demolition debris produces a product useful in earth engineering applications, including landfills, soil stabilization and roadbeds. The method involves wet shredding construction and demolition debris into a moist shredded product and applying the product as daily cover for a landfill, or in a roadbed, or as a soil stabilizer or nutrient. A landfill design using the recycled product is also disclosed.
