1. Introduction. Concrete is the second most used material by volume on Earth. Portland cement is the main binder of concrete, and its production (estimated at 4.3 bi ton/year) accounts for about 8% of the global CO 2 emission [].Besides the CO 2 emission released by cement production, large amounts of sand and gravel are extracted …
The old cement paste that remained on the natural aggregate was porous and cracked, leading to weak mechanical properties of the recycled aggregate. Treatment of the recycled aggregate by impregnation of silica fume solution and by ultrasonic cleaning was studied with the objective of overcoming the above-mentioned limitations.
