Abstract | ||||
The research aims to develop alternatives of using rice straw in construction as a tool to preserve the environment in Egypt. where the rice straw is one of the types of solid agricultural waste, which is produced in Egypt in large quantities, as a result of the lack of strategy by the State for how to collect rice straw from farmers to recycling to benefit from them. Farmers burn it, which causes the formation of a black cloud annually in Egypt and resulting environmental problems and health damage. Therefore, it was necessary to research how to get rid of rice straw by making use of it in recycling and using it in different ways in construction work in order to maximize the economic return from it as well as to preserve the environment in Egypt. The research paper deals with alternatives to benefiting from rice straw, and these alternatives can be considered as a methodology or framework that the government may benefit from in addressing the environmental problem facing the country annually. | ||||
