Aggregate and methods for producing aggregate
An aggregate comprising a plurality of cellulose fibres; a mineral component, and a binding agent, wherein the cellulose fibres make up between 15% and 70% by weight of the aggregate, and wherein the mineral component makes up between 85% and 30% by weight of the aggregate. The mineral component may be a plastic, metal, ceramic, lignin or glass material present along with the cellulose fibres as a waste product from a paper recycling process. The binder may be Portland cement and be present at up to 10% by weight. The aggregate may be used to form construction products. Also disclosed are aggregates formed form cellulose fibres without a binder and the formation of an aggregate from cellulose fibres from which the mineral components have been removed.
