Reviewer 2 Report
The authors analyzed the properties of asphalt modified by shell powder through various tests. In general, the manuscript has good logic and organization. More background information is suggested in the experiment design and material testing section. More references are suggested on the motivation and experiment. In Section 2, more detailed information could be given to explain the reason for the design, choice of equipment, test methods, etc. A small paragraph for each subsection seems pale. In Section 3, the authors could validate the results with others' work in the literatures and analyze the advantages and challenges of the results. More information is suggested in the conclusions.

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Only comment 4, I think the authors do not understand my point.
I suggest the authors to rewrite the introduction based on previous studies related to shell powder instead of bio-oil.
I know that seashells consider as bio-materials. But the effects of the two boi-materials are different for example shell powder increases the rutting resistance. Meanwhile, the bio-oil lower the rutting resistance so I suggest the authors to add a more in-depth review of different kind of shells ((only)) (not bio-oil).
and I suggest the author to add a discussion on Fig 17.
My regards...
