Due to the poor cracking performance of aged binders, the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in road pavements is limited. When applying a greater RAP percentage, the use of a rejuvenator is necessary. The rejuvenator's unfavourable softening impact, on the other hand, causes the pavement to be vulnerable to rutting. As a result, RAP binders with optimized rutting and fatigue cracking properties are required. Therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate the simultaneous effects of 70% waste engine oil (WEO) and 30% SBS copolymer as a compound rejuvenator (WS-rejuvenator) on the performance of asphalt binders and mixtures containing RAP binders of 30% and 50%. The physical, chemical and rheological properties of asphalt binders were evaluated using the conventional tests, SARA (Saturate, Aromatic, Resin, and Asphaltene) analysis, FTIR test, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), DSR, and BBR. The mechanical properties of mixtures were examined using the Marshall, indirect tensile strength, moisture damage, rutting, and aggregate coating tests. The findings showed that WS-rejuvenator at 5% and 10% recovered the physical characteristics of asphalt binders containing 30% and 50% RAP, respectively. Furthermore, WS-rejuvenator was able to compensate for the light components of the RAP binder that were lost over time. As a consequence, the behavior of the RAP binder at high, moderate, and low temperatures was recovered to that of the virgin binder. By mixing the RAP binder with the compound rejuvenator, the oxygenation indices were effectively reduced. The TGA revealed that the thermal stability of regenerated binders was equivalent to that of the virgin binders. In addition, the mechanical properties of regenerated mixes were enhanced in comparison to the control mixture. In summary, the adoption of RAP and WEO-SBS rejuvenator in asphalt mixtures show promising outcomes to enhance greener pavement materials application in the future.
