    Análise das propriedades mecânicas do concreto com adição de seixo e polietileno tereftalato (PET)
    (Instituto de Tecnologia e Educação Galileo da Amazônia, 2024) BEZERRA, Antonio Carlos Lapa; ALENCAR, David Barbosa de
    The increasing production of plastic waste, particularly Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), poses a significant environmental challenge due to its long degradation time and negative environmental impact. This study investigates the feasibility of using ground PET as a partial replacement for fine aggregate (sand) in concrete production. Mixtures with 0%, 10%, 30%, and 50% sand replacement by PET were prepared. Tests at 28 days of curing showed that PET addition in certain proportions maintained the required strength and provided environmental benefits, such as reducing natural sand extraction and reusing plastic waste, reinforcing the technical and environmental viability of using recycled PET in concretes.
