Analysis of Physical Properties of Coarse Aggregates Recovered from Demolished Concrete with a Two-Stage Water Jigs Process for Reuse as Aggregates in Concrete
The present work analyses the physical characteristics of aggregates recovered with the waterjigging process from comminuted concrete. In this work, conventional concrete (C16/20) was crushed to a top size of 20 mm with a jaw crusher and classified in a size range of 5 to 20 mm. The densimetric distribution analysis was carried out in a densimetric range of 2.4 to 2.8 g/cm3, and the cement paste was dissolved from all granulometric ranges to analyze the composition (sand, cement paste, and aggregates) of each part and define the possibilities of materials to recover. A two-stage water jig concentration process was used, generating a cleaner material in the first stage and a re-cleaner material in the second jigging stage. The physical properties of the material inserted in the feed and the material generated in the first and second stages were analyzed to compare them with natural aggregates. The results indicate the viability of recovering 47.8% of the coarse aggregates present in the concrete feed in the re-cleaner material, with 84% of particles having a density higher than 2.6 g/cm3. These characteristics are similar to those found in natural aggregates.
