Interaction of composite fume suppression and odor elimination agents with crumb rubber modified asphalt: Inhibition behavior of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and inorganic fume.

The production and construction of crumb rubber modified asphalt (RMA) at high temperatures can produce a large amount of toxic fume, which is detrimental to human health and environment. In this study, a series of composite fume suppression and odor elimination agents (CSEAs) with both physical adsorption and chemical capture functions were adopted to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hydrogen sulfide (HS). The material composition, microstructure, and specific surface area of CSEA were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and N adsorption-desorption isotherm (BET).
