This study evaluated the potential of two bio-based materials for pavement applications: mycelium-based composites and biochar-enhanced concrete (Biocrete), both produced from Icelandic wood waste streams.
The study demonstrated that mycelium composites could be used as insulation materials in non-structural pavement applications due to their low thermal conductivity, while biochar-enhanced concrete showed improved mechanical performance at a 5% biochar replacement level and offered potential for long-term carbon storage. The findings highlighted the potential of these materials to reduce embodied carbon emissions and support more sustainable pavement design, while identifying life-cycle assessment and long-term durability as important areas for future research.
