Abstract

The world has become increasingly concerned over the global climate change thought to be caused by greenhouse gases, chief among them anthropogenic carbon dioxide which is released into the atmosphere from burning carbon fuels. In order to reduce the carbon emission content, non toxic material added with the bitumen. Such a material is molasses, which is the residue in sugar manufacturing process. Non-petroleum based binders can be made light-coloured bitumen so that it reduces the urban heat island effect. Superplasticizers are an essential component of self compactness to provide necessary workability such as viscosity modifying agents (VMA) for stability. The carbon content and viscosity of the bitumen is reduced by adding these ingredients into the bitumen and thus will increase self compactness and eco friendly.
