Abstract
This review by Working Group 1 of the RILEM TC 309-MCP discusses recent advances in the beneficial carbonation treatment of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA). The impact of carbonation on RCA properties as well as the microstructure and performance of concrete and other construction materials made thereof is critically reviewed. The increasing focus on environmentally friendly building practices has led to a greater interest in the CO2 uptake associated with carbonation processing. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on the importance of adopting tailored strategies to optimise the carbonation process based on the quality and type of RCA. Evidence in the literature highlights the beneficiation potential of carbonation processing in improving RCA properties and performance, which translates in variable degrees of enhancement of the performance of concrete or otheinitial; position: relative; float: left; top: 0px; left: 0px; z-index: 1 !important; pointer-events: none;"/>er applications made thereof. The review concludes that, to date, significant techno-economic challenges remain to be addressed to improve the competitiveness of the technology, notably in terms of upscaling and refining life cycle assessment data.
期刊介绍:
Materials and Structures, the flagship publication of the International Union of Laboratories and Experts in Construction Materials, Systems and Structures (RILEM), provides a unique international and interdisciplinary forum for new research findings on the performance of construction materials. A leader in cutting-edge research, the journal is dedicated to the publication of high quality papers examining the fundamental properties of building materials, their characterization and processing techniques, modeling, standardization of test methods, and the application of research results in building and civil engineering. Materials and Structures also publishes comprehensive reports prepared by the RILEM’s technical committees.
