For this purpose, Extraco has been collaborating since 2016 with the Agri-food Biotechnology Research Group of the University of Vigo and the Civil Engineering and Marine Energy Group (GICEMA) of the University of Santiago de Compostela, located in the Ourense and Lugo campuses, respectively, which reflects the project\u2019s commitment to the promotion of peripheral university campuses of Galicia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">On the other hand, the \u2018<strong>Cenicienta<\/strong>\u2019 project aims to research on new uses of the bottom ash produced in thermal power stations, which could be applied to civil engineering and building works. Bottom ash is a waste product that is currently considered a major environmental issue. Research is being conducted to assess its use in the manufacturing of mortar, concrete, prefabricated concrete components and hot bituminous mixtures. To this end, Extraco has been working since 2016 with the Construction Group (GCONS) of the Higher Technical School of Civil Engineering of the University of A Coru\u00f1a and the Civil Engineering and Marine Energy Group (GICEMA) of the Lugo Higher Polytechnic School, which belongs to the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">The two experimental road sections have been built in the premises of the bituminous mixing plant that Extraco has in Allariz. These life-size sections are being used to test the properties of the new construction materials developed in both RDI projects, by assessing their use in both soil and ground stabilization as well as in the manufacturing of new types of bituminous surfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Extraco has gone one step further in the development of two RDI projects in which it is taking part, \u2018Innobiorresiduos\u2019 and \u2018Cenicienta\u2019, by building two experimental road sections in Allariz (Ourense), which had been included in the budget for both research initiatives.
