Use of Glassy Slag from Biomass Combustion in the Building Industry – Coarse Aggregate

Article Preview

Abstract:

The work deals with possibilities using of glassy slag produced during the combustion of biomass in construction. This is a waste product with glass characteristic, which may also contain ash and other pollutants. This waste is significantly different according to the used types of biomass, soil, temperature and time of combustion. Its structure is mostly porous and glassy. Building materials in which may be applied are cementitious or alkali-activated composites in which can appear in due to its nature as a filler or binder. In the paper the basic characteristics with the focus on use of this slag as a coarse aggregate were examined.
