- • Design and Fabrication of Low-Cost Building Material Production Equipment for Waste Based Composites
- • Mechanical and Thermal Performance of Bio-Based Composite Panels Using Agricultural and Industrial Waste
- • Utilization of Recycled Plastic and Natural Polymers in the Fabrication of Lightweight Construction Panels
Expected Output
The project aims to divert waste from landfills, reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with conventional material production, and promote low-cost and environmentally friendly alternatives for both rural and urban infrastructure development. The development of a scalable, low-cost fabrication system further enhances the study’s practical relevance, making sustainable construction technology more accessible, especially in resource-limited communities
