Old Circuit Boards Hit the Road.

The article focuses on the efforts of researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China to find ways to reuse the printed circuit boards as an additive in asphalt. The process of creating a modified asphalt by reusing the pulp of glass fibers and resin from the panels is explained. It notes that the modified asphalt is being tested by researchers to examine how it holds to outdoor conditions over time. The formation of the pulp of glass fibers and resin into sheets that could be made into structures is being experimented by the team.
