Government material highlighted that the technology can potentially:
Reduce road-construction cost by up to 40%
Produce roads with substantially higher strength
Reduce consumption of natural aggregates
Reuse industrial waste
Support the circular economy
It represents India's broader:
Waste to Wealth
