title = "Characterization of Ceramic and Concrete Wastes from CDW as Secondary Raw Materials for Mortar Applications",
abstract = "The construction sector uses high quantities of raw materials and consequently the demolition sector generates huge amounts of waste. Envisioning the future of the construction sector, new Circular Economy Business Models should be implemented to contribute to the development of the sector. These Business Models will be based on innovative recycling techniques able to provide the technical requirements of the construction materials. This work aims to valorize ceramic and concrete wastes as aggregates for the mortar manufacturing. The chemical composition of these materials with high proportion of silica and very low quantities of sulfates makes them appropriate for their application. The wastes were previously crushed to the required particle size (6mm). The crushed ceramic waste presents an important fines proportion, which will increase the water consumption in the mortar mixes.",
