“…After dismantling the concrete sleepers, they undergo the common process of crushing, extracting both the steel reinforcement and a part of the rail fastening system with the help of magnets. The steel is recycled as described above and the crushed concrete is used as embankment material to fill low road construction [59]. This is possible because no chemical agents are used during dismantling and there is no risk of groundwater contamination or other harmful effects [59].…”

“…The steel is recycled as described above and the crushed concrete is used as embankment material to fill low road construction [59]. This is possible because no chemical agents are used during dismantling and there is no risk of groundwater contamination or other harmful effects [59]. For modelling the EOL phase of the sleepers an ''open-loop different primary route" approach was selected [39], because the material does not maintain its inherent properties and it is recycled into a different product with a different function (embankment material).…”
