Abstract: An improved method of making hot mix asphalt, without adding virgin asphalt concrete oil, includes several steps: adding gravel to a container; and heating and rotating the gravel in the container to a suitable temperature for creating the hot asphalt mix. While heated gravel rotates in the container, processed shingles, having a predetermined %/w of AC oil (20%/w on average), are added to a mixing auger along with at least 1 to 2 parts of rejuvenating oil per 100 parts of the processed shingles. The processed shingles and rejuvenating oil are mixed together for about 10 to 20 seconds in the mixing auger creating a slurry of rejuvenated shingles. The slurry of rejuvenated shingles from the mixer auger are then released into the heated and rotating gravel in the container, forming hot mix asphalt with a total oil content of between about 4%/w to 8%/w of the hot mix asphalt, advantageously without adding virgin asphalt concrete oil.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing and applying a novel pavement and patch material for roadways, driveways, walkways, patch for potholes and like surfaces, including the steps of reducing recycled asphalt roof waste to granules, adding aggregate and other solid recyclable materials to the granules, adding rejuvenating oil, adding emulsifier, adding asphalt concrete oil, adding anti-strip additives, adding liquid silicone, mixing the composition, heating the composition, applying the composition to the roadway or the like and compacting a new paving material.

Abstract: A method for reducing at production levels sticky, abrasive waste shingles and portions thereof into a reduced shingle material for use of a patch for potholes and cracks and as paving for roads and the like comprises shredding of the shingles to pieces, milling the pieces to particles and granules and impinging the particles and granules with intermittent blasts of compressed air to prevent clogging and sticking and to assist in discharging of the reduced shingle materials. The method may also include the step of spraying water upon the shingles and inside of the apparatus. The apparatus includes an improved hammermill with a compress air manifold with apertures therein for intermittently discharging compressed air which impinges upon the inner chamber of the hammermill and upon the pulverized waste materials. A pressurized water manifold with apertures may also spray the mill chamber of the hammermill with water to prevent clogging or sticking of the hammermill.
