Abstract: Abstract The following paper presents results of research carried out on oiled gravel aggregate. In Russia, the oil-treated aggregate mixture is called “loose-bound organic-mineral mixture” (hereinafter abbreviated as LOM). The aim of the research was to explore the possibility of using oil waste products and their heavy residues generated during oil transportation as a binder in oil-treated gravel aggregate or LOM. Currently, this waste is not used anywhere, it is widely burned, polluting the environment. Studies were carried out using Infra-red spectroscopy of samples of the original oil waste, heavy residues of oil waste and road oil bitumen of BND 90/130 quality type. The fractional composition of oil wastes and their heavy residues was studied during their distillation by heating to a temperature of +335 °C. It was found that for preparing LOM it is more effective to use oil residues. The number of LOM compositions samples were prepared and their main physical and mechanical indicators were determined. Based on the tests, it was concluded that the residues of oil waste can be used as a binder in the composition of LOM such as oil-treated gravel.
