    Abstract: The wet recycling process of plastic waste was used to design a composite material (asphalt concrete) following the Duriez method. This process aims to improve the rheological performance of asphalt concrete by transforming PET on powdery and added to bitumen. To attend this objective, Doehlert' surface plane was used to assess how the asphalt rate... Show More
