Disposal of industrial and agricultural waste is a serious environmental problem across the globe. The environmentally friendly disposal of this Industrial waste by using it in a binder for asphalt mixtures is one of the key focuses of today's research in pavement engineering. The bio oils which are derived from various agricultural wastes has been found to modify or partially substitute the conventional asphalt binder. Effective use of cotton stalk (CS) waste to produced bio- oil for using in asphalt can help in reducing environmental problems. In this research, the conventional asphalt binder was modified with bio-oil obtained from CS at 5% and 10% by weight to determine its effect on the properties of conventional asphalt binder. The Dynamic Shear Rheometer is used along with conventional asphalt binder testing to assess the rheological properties of modified asphalt binders. Results from this study reveals that bio-oil extracted from CS can be used to enhance the low-temperature rheological properties of conventional asphalt binders.
