Recently, the recycling and reusing of construction and demolition waste concrete is urgently required because waste concrete is greatly increased according to the rapid increasing of urban redevelopment project, but the problem solution for demand and supply unbalance of fine aggregate is urgently required because of the restriction of collecting sea fine aggregate. So the utilization of high quality recycled fine aggregate using construction and demolition waste concrete as new fine aggregate for construction industry is urgently. Accordingly, In this study, As recycled fine aggregate manufacturing technology with exceeding in economical efficiency, reduction efficiency of environmental load and quality improvement effect of recycled fine aggregate, it is to develop dry manufacturing system composed specific gravity separator of high-speed rotation impact type and centrifugal Force Powder Collector, etc. And it is to examine mechanism of recycled sand dry manufacturing system.

Recycled fine aggregate has low quality because it contains large amount of old mortar. So, its usage is limited to a lower value-add, such as the roadbed material etc. Also, alkaline water occurred from treatment process of the waste concrete is becoming the cause of environmental problem. Accordingly, this study is to develop on the high quality recycled fine aggregate produced by low speed wet abraser using sulphuric. We investigated the properties of compressive strength of the mortar which was manufactured using recycled fine aggregate containing calcined gypsum produced by earlier mentioned process. Test results indicate that concrete using recycled fine aggregate containing calcined gypsum is higher compressive strength than concrete using other sands.

Recycled aggregate is a valuable resource in Korea in lack of natural aggregate. Government recognizes the importance and suggests various policies enhancing its use for higher value-added application. Most of recycled aggregate produced currently in Korea, however, is applied for low value-added uses such as embankment, reclamation, etc. Its higher valued application such as for structural concrete is very limited. Although domestic manufacturing technology of recycled aggregate is at the world level, recycled aggregate is not applied for structural concrete. Primary reasons for the limited use of the recycled aggregate include bonded mortar and cracks occurred during crushing and hence it is very difficult to predict and control the quality of recycled aggregate concrete. This research intended to grasp combined characteristics of recycled aggregate, high early strength cement, maximum temperature and time duration of steam curing and then, analyze the effects of factors. Also, it suggested the method to improve field applicability of recycled aggregate concrete.

Test results indicate that mortar using recycled fine aggregate containing calcined gypsum has lowest compressive strength. It seems that low compressive strength is closely associated with the expansion of the specimen by excessive formation of ettringite.

If the properties of artificial lightweight aggregates produced by rotary kiln can be predicted by using a simulator equipped with a small electric furnace and a specially designed device for specimen movement, large amount of raw materials and plenty of test time can be saved to produce test products of lightweight aggregates. In this study a simulator for the accurate prediction of the artificial lightweight aggregates produced by rotary kiln was assembled by our own design and the properties of lightweight aggregates produced by both the simulator and rotary kiln were compared to speculate its usefulness. The average diameter of aggregates was 8 mm and atmosphere in the furnace was controlled by the amount of carbon powders. Specific gravity, absorption rate (%), black-core area in the cross-sectional view of both aggregates were measured and compared. Unlike oxydizing atmosphere, both specific gravity and absorption rate of the aggregates sintered at reducing atmosphere were increased with increasing carbon addition. It is concluded that the sintering atmosphere was the closest to that of the rotary kiln when the carbon addition was 0.7 g to make a reducing atmosphere in the furnace and the properties of both agreggates was also similar to each other.

Recycled aggregate by the recycling construction waste has a lot of advantage such as the developing the alternative resource and protecting of environment. However, recycled aggregate is used as the low quality grade, because it is difficult to remove old mortar from aggregate. To use the recycled aggregate as high quality grade, it is important to develop the technology to produce the high quality recycled aggregate. To manufacture the high quality recycled aggregate, old mortar attached on the aggregates should be removed efficiently. Therefore, in this study, we suggested the optimum condition to remove old mortar effectively using sulfuric acid and low speed wet rotary mill for high quality recycled fine aggregate. The results shows that the recycled aggregate satisfy on the standards of KS F 2573 in density, absorption and solid volume, when adequate condition of sulfuric mole ratio and aggregate ratio are make.

A survey of concrete plants in Incheon Metropolitan City and Gyeonggi Province was used to conduct an analysis of aggregate transport distance and production forms, as well as to evaluate the features and current status of aggregates distribution. As a result, areas such as Incheon, Siheung, Bucheon, Gimpo, and Siheung, where the distance to the demand points is less than 20 km, exhibited bidirectional distribution whereas Paju, Yongin, Yangju, and Pocheon, with distances ranging from 20 to 50 km is showed a unidirectional distribution pattern supplying aggregates exclusively to Incheon. Survey on manufacturing forms, more than 85% of the gravel dispersed in the Incheon area is made up of crushed aggregates derived from rocks discharged at construction sites indicating a considerable skew in supply chain. These findings are predicted to have a detrimental influence on aggregate supply in the long run, necessitating policy changes targeted at building an optimal aggregate distribution market.

This study analyzes the basic characteristics of the concrete using recycled coarse aggregates produced by using a rotary crusher and compares it to that of using a cone crusher. As a result, the recycled aggregate produced by using the rotary crusher represents more excellent results in fluidity and compressive strength according to the increase in the replacement rate of recycled aggregates than that of using the cone crusher. It can be analyzed that it was due to the fact that the particle shape of the recycled aggregate produced by using the rotary crusher showed round figures relatively and that leaded to reduce friction force and remove lots of grouted mortar caused by its wearing.

Natural aggregate regular exploitation has led to environmental and resource depletion issues; consequently, construction waste has become an important raw material in the supply of aggregate smoothly. The recycled aggregate produced in the most of recycled aggregate processing company in Korea has a high adhesion ratio of cement paste and mortar, which affects the water absorption ratio and density. Therefore, the quality of recycled aggregate needs to be improved. In this study, we improved the quality of recycled aggregate through the use of a multistage separation ball mill. This ball mill has a sieve which protects the ball mix and improves the motion. Products produced by using multistage separation ball mill were compared with various quality standard for utilization as recycle aggregate. Finally, we confirmed that the multistage separation ball mill can efficiently separate cement paste and mortar from natural aggregate and that it is suitable for the production of recycled aggregates.

The recycled aggregates produced from waste concrete by crushing and granularity adjusting processes only can't be used for structural aggregates because they display low density and high abrasion rate by including lots of mortar and cement paste. However, the recycled aggregates include a lot of aggregates for concrete. Using the heavy medium separation method that is one of the specific gravity separation methods, about 45% of the waste concrete could be converted to the recycled aggregates.
