Reuse of Powders and Recycled Aggregates from Mixed Construction and Demolition Waste in Alkali-Activated Materials and Precast Concrete Units
This article describes the recycling of coarse and fine fractions and powder from construction and demolition waste (CDW) using alkaline activation technology (geopolymerization). The CDW sample used corresponds to a mixture (mixed waste) of concrete (Co), ceramics (Ce) and masonry (M). Co, Ce and M (CDW-Mixed) powders were used as geopolymer precursors. As an alkaline activator, a mixture of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) was used. From CDW-Mixed, a hybrid cement added with 10% ordinary Portland cement (OPC) was synthesized to promote curing at room temperature (25 °C). From the alkali-activated hybrid cement and the incorporation of mixed recycled aggregates (gravel and sand), applications of mortars, concretes, fiber-reinforced materials and prefabricated units, such as solid blocks, perforated (hollow) blocks and pavers, were produced. The results of the physical–mechanical characterization validate the application potential of these CDW-based materials in the construction sector. Compressive strengths of up to 40.5 MPa for mortar and 36.9 MPa for concrete were obtained after 90 days of curing at room temperature ≈ 25 °C. Similarly, a life cycle analysis (LCA) associated with raw materials demonstrated the environmental sustainability (44% lower carbon footprint) of mixed alkali-activated CDWs compared to conventional materials based on OPC.
