AB  - Effective waste management is essential for sustainable urban development, and Construction and Demolition (CD) waste poses a significant challenge due to its volume and composition in urban regions. In recent years, technological advancements have offered innovative solutions to improve the management of CD waste. This exploratory study primarily uses secondary data and draws on case studies from 5 Indian cities and global literature on technological innovations in CD waste management to propose a preliminary framework for identifying how different technologies can play a vital role and where they can be incorporated into the reverse supply chain of CD waste in the Indian urban context. This paper paves the road for future research that will use this initial framework to identify more practical technological solutions based on a thorough understanding of ground reality, improving chances of technology adoption.
