Abstract

In this chapter, the performance of the blended cement mortar with carbonated solid wastes, including physico-chemical properties, morphology, mineralogy, compressive strength, and autoclave soundness, is illustrated. The specification of performance testing for constriction materials with carbonated solid waste is also provided. In general, a high carbonation conversion of solid waste exhibits a higher mechanical strength in the early stage than pure Portland cement mortar. Moreover, the mortar with carbonated solid waste generally possesses superior soundness to the mortar using fresh solid waste. Since the chemistry of the cement hydrations is complicated and has not been completely clear, the principles and mechanisms of performance enhancement due to the use of carbonated waste in blended cement system are reviewed and discussed.
