Abstract

Recycling of concrete construction and demolition waste is necessary for the increase of sustainability and reducing the environmental impact of concrete construction because of the increasing rate of such waste production and its accumulation. Coarse aggregates can be partially recovered from concrete waste. However, it is not clear whether hydrated cement paste can be converted back to clinker. However, concrete waste fines, which are a mix of fine aggregates, coarse aggregate debris, and the hydrated cement paste, are currently not a part of the recycling process. The ability of hydrated cement paste to be recovered back to clinker minerals that have binder properties has not been studied systematically. In the current research, the phase transitions in hydrated cement paste heated to a temperature in the range from 600 and 1450 °C were investigated by means of X-ray diffractometry and thermal analysis. The experimental results demonstrate that hydrated Portland cement paste can be recovered back to clinker minerals. The recovered cement paste contains all the main clinker minerals similarly to the initial cement. The results provide evidence for the possibility of recycling hydrated cement and concrete into the cement clinker. The recycled clinker will potentially have a lower carbon footprint in comparison to original Portland cement.
