Abstract

In order to explore the feasibility of waste edible animal oil used as the asphalt rejuvenator, this study investigated the effect of waste edible animal oil on softening point, penetration, ductility and viscosity of aged asphalt binders. The aged asphalt binders were obtained from the indoor simulating aging processes by using Thin Film Oven Test (TFOT) and Pressure Aging Vessel (PAV). The results show that the dosage of waste animal oil has different effect on physical properties of aged asphalt. Both 70# asphalt and SBS modified asphalt have the optimal content of waste edible animal oil to achieve the best physical properties. The optimal contents of waste edible animal oil for 70# asphalt and SBS modified asphalt are 6% and 4%, respectively.
