“…From a source perspective, such value merely included those C&D waste generated from large-scale projects and construction activities in Beijing, and those from small generators (e.g., decoration for private apartments and houses) were mixed with municipal solid waste according to related legislation (PGBM, 2020). In this context, the scale of C&D waste generation in Beijing was about half that of Shanghai (Shanghai Construction Muck Comprehensive Service Monitoring Platform, (2020), one-third of India (Jain et al, 2018), and one-tenth of the United States (Environmental Protection Agency, 2018).…”

“…For example, when incinerating CDW and recycling fly ash into alternative cement products, the process itself is energy intensive and discharges multiple air pollutants. 77,78 While some material recycling processes can reduce specific environmental impacts, some recycling treatments cause significant environmental burdens. 79 For instance, concrete recycling may reduce acidification outputs, but this activity has significant land consumption requirements.…”

“…They forecast the generation of waste in 2018 as around 196 million tonnes from construction waste and 192 million tonnes from demolition waste around the country. Jain et al (2018) made estimations to C&D waste under some scenarios to India, calculating an average of 289 million tonnes of construction waste in view of 2016 data. Using data from 17 countries, Menegaki and Damigos (2018) developed a regression model relating C&D waste per capita with construction gross domestic product (GDP), GDP per capita, and population density.…”
