IIT Madras researchers have developed a treatment process that uses solar thermal energy to recycle waste concrete from construction and demolition debris. This method produced a superior quality of concrete than the recycled concrete obtained through mechanical crushing. The researchers demonstrated the technology at the India One Solar Thermal Power Plant in Rajasthan.
