“…Mortars are expected to take advantage of ground glass; it is known, in fact, that the addition of silica fume as a component material in the production of mortars or concretes can lead to the preparation of products, namely, reaction powders mortars or concretes (RPM, RPC), with low water absorption, high mechanical properties, and modified shrinkage [5,6]. In a parallel approach, the addition of generic waste glass to mortars or concretes has been widely investigated [7,8]. It has been demonstrated, for example, that the use of waste glass from crushed containers as concrete aggregate may develop pozzolanic activity which is affected by glass finenesses and chemical composition [9,10].…”

The present paper reports on the results of some experiments dealing with the recycling of mixed cathode ray tube (CRT) glass waste in the production of high-strength mortars. Waste CRT glass cullet was previously milled, and sieved, and the only fine fraction was added to the fresh mortar in order to replace part of the natural aggregate. The addition of superplasticizer was also investigated. All hydrated materials displayed high compressive strength after curing. Samples containing CRT mixed glass showed a more rapid increase of strength with respect to the reference compositions, and materials with a superplasticizer content of 1% showed the best overall performance due to the favourable influence of the small glass particles which increase the amount of silicate hydrated produced. The induced coupled plasma (ICP) analysis made on the solutions, obtained from the leaching tests, confirmed the low elution of hazardous elements from the monolithic materials produced and consequently their possible environmental compatibility.

Abstract:This study relates to the use of the industrial waste as substitute to the natural aggregates. It relates to two types of waste: Crushed glass and waste tires. These wastes were incorporated into concrete for a partial substitution of the aggregates in the proportions of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% for the same matrix (mortar). The compressive strength and the mode of rupture are compared. The results show a decrease of compressive strength when the proportion of waste increases. Moreover, the compressive strength of concrete of used tire is lower than that of the concrete of crushed glass. Variation of the mode of rupture between these two types of concrete was also observed.

“…The utilization of waste glass slightly reduced the workability of concrete. Pollery et al [21] concluded that concrete made with waste glass require more water than ordinary concrete. Schwarz et al [22] investigated the behaviour of plain and glass powder modified concrete.…”

To overcome the scarcity of natural resources as construction material and to reduce the hazards from industries, industrial wastes can play a very significant role. In this paper, the influence of glass powder and steel slag is reviewed. It is concluded that glass powder and steel slag can upset some portion of concrete thereby providing significant improvement in mechanical properties of concrete consequently reducing the environmental hazards from industries.
