ABSTRACT
The research is devoted to the study of the possibility of using asphalt resin-paraffin residues and ash from thermal power plants in the production of asphalt concrete to improve its performance and reduce environmental impact. The study employed samples of asphalt-resin-paraffin deposits from oil fields in the Kyzylorda region, infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to determine the specific surface area and activity of natural radionuclides in the ash from the Kyzylorda thermal power plant. The main results of the study show that fly ash from thermal power plants contains a high content of silicon oxide (30.03-62.53%) and aluminium oxide (8.84-30.92%). Spectral analysis of asphalt-resin-paraffin residues from oil fields revealed the presence of hydrocarbons in methyl and methylene groups. The optimum composition of the composite binder “Bitumen – asphalt resin-paraffin residues – thermal power plant ash” is as follows: bitumen – 80-82%, thermal power plant ash – 7-11%, asphalt resin-paraffin residues – 8.5-9.5%. The resulting asphalt concrete demonstrated high compressive strength (2.2-2.5 MPa at 50℃, 4.4-5.2 MPa at 20℃, 9.7-9.9 MPa at 0℃), high shear stability (internal friction coefficient 0.85-0.87), excellent shear adhesion at 50℃ (0.62-0.86), high water resistance (0.89-0.98) and low water saturation (1.22-2.2%). The results also show that the use of thermal power plant ash and asphalt resin-paraffin residues in asphalt concrete improves its performance and reduces the environmental impact through waste recycling. The data obtained confirm the possibility of effective use of these materials in road construction in Central Kazakhstan. This research brings to science a practical methodology for developing asphalt concrete composition using asphalt resin-paraffin residues and ash from thermal power plants, which contributes to the efficient use of resources and reduction of environmental impact in road construction.
