The development of a new stabilised rammed earth (SRE) with improved thermal properties is the main
objective of this research. Three types of SRE were doped with microencapsulated PCM and the compressive
strength response was optimized with a design of experiments (DoE). The optimums were thermally
analysed and were environmentally evaluated by a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). The results showed an
improvement of thermal properties but the impact points of LCA increase considerably due to the microencapsulated
PCM. The use of macroencapsulated PCM and a proper selection of PCM are mandatory to
improve the LCA results in future research.
The work is partially funded by the Spanish government
(ENE2011-28269-C03-02 and ENE2011-28269-C03-03) and the
European Union (COST Action TU0802). The authors would like
to thank the Catalan Government for the quality accreditation
given to their research group GREA (2009 SGR 534) and research
group DIOPMA (2009 SGR 645). |
