Recycling waste materials in construction has been a focus of many research projects conducted at RMIT University and The University of Melbourne.

Most of these are sponsored by industry sectors which generate large amounts of waste.

Significant benefits can be realised by translation of the technologies to practice, and the methods developed can be used to convert other waste materials to useful products.
