Resum
During the glass selection process by optical sorting equipment, a rejection material calledCSP (ceramic, stone, and porcelain) is generated, which is lower than 2 wt % of the glass culletcollected in Catalonia (Spain). Although this process should only separate non-glass impurities fromthe glass cullet, around 84 wt % of glass is found in the CSP. The CSP characterization reveals thatCSP is mainly compound by SiO2, Al2O3, alkali metals, and CaO, which are key components for thealkali-activated cement (AAC) development. Consequently, this study is focused on the potential ofCSP as a precursor to synthesize AAC. The concentration of the alkali activator (NaOH: 1 M, 4 M,and 8 M) and the liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratio were tested in the formulation of the AAC. The AACspecimens at 28 days cured were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (FIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), apparent density (ρapp), and compressivestrength (σs). The results obtained showed that the L/S of 0.5 and 4.0 M for NaOH concentration arethe best conditions, due to the mechanical properties (ρapp= 1.75 g·cm−3;σs= 52.8 MPa), cohesion(SEM), and formed phases (XRD and FT-IR). Therefore, CSP can be a precursor for developing new,sustainable binders.
