Abstract :

The UK construction industry generates approximately 120 million tonnes of waste annually, presenting significant environmental and regulatory challenges. Although concrete, timber and metals dominate by volume, plasterboard waste presents disproportionate environmental risk due to hydrogen sulphide generation under anaerobic landfill conditions. This study critically evaluates plasterboard waste management within the Park Lane Redevelopment Project in Central London and compares its regulatory complexity, environmental impact and circular economy potential with other major construction waste streams.
