Abstract |
|
Pervious concrete is an important application for sustainable construction. It is one of the innovative techniques that can be used for ground water recharge since it can naturally filter water from rainfall or storm and reduce pollutant entering into streams, ponds and rivers. Concrete as a construction material with added self-cleaning characteristics and the ability to remove pollutants is the need of the day. Self-cleaning and air-purifying pervious concrete functionality is a promising technology that can be constructed using naturally air-cleaning agents such as photo catalyst Titanium dioxide. The paper highlights the application of titanium dioxide as partial replacement with cement in pervious concrete so as to achieve eco-friendly and sustainable pervious concrete without using any admixtures. |
