Many researches have been conducted to utilize recycled aggregates in Korea, but since most sources of recycled aggregates are not clear, there is a lot of uncertainty in applying the existing research results on recycle of aggregates generated from nuclear power plants. In this study, therefore, in order to investigate the possibility of recycling coarse aggregates generated through dismantling of nuclear power plants in Korea, recycled coarse aggregates were produced from concrete simulating nuclear power plants in Korea. Using the recycled coarse aggregates, concrete was mixed in consideration of the mixing ratio of the recycled coarse aggregates, and the mechanical properties were experimentally investigated. From the test results, as the mixing ratio of recycled coarse aggregates increased. concrete compressive strength, tensile strength, and elastic modulus generally decreased up to 36, 37, and 27% from the mechanical properties of normal concrete, respectively. Therefore, it can be concluded that limitation on the mixing ratio of recycled coarse aggregates is necessary when coarse aggregates are recycled through dismantling of nuclear power plants.

To investigate the current status of aggregate industry in Korea, the law of aggregate gathering, the law of forest management, the aggregate statistics of demand and supply in recent years, and market price of aggregate were reviewed. It is conformed that the forest aggregate industry is developing year by year and leading the industry. In addition, in order to well understanding about aggregate industry, the production system and process of the Whaseong forest aggregate quarry were introduced.

Recently, shortage of natural aggregates resources and the amount of waste concrete hsve been rapidly increased, the technique of aggregates manufacturing of waste concrete is damanded. In this study, we evaluated the performance of gutter type roll crusher. Gutter type roll crusher is showed enhanced producing manufacturing ability. The gutter type roll crusher achieved more friction energy than general roll crusher, also a mount of producing showed same results.

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.

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. in this study. And it is to verify performance with evaluating quality of recycled fine aggregate. In consequence, it is identify that performance improvement effect of recycled fine aggregate by crushing recycled fine aggregate according to high-speed rotation impact, separating and collecting powder and minuteness dust according to centrifugal Force and mass defect, separating and reclaiming minuteness sand to mass defect.

To solve resource exhaustion and waste management problems caused by mass consumption, there are many efforts to change from resource consumption system to recycling system. Specially, interests about management of construction waste have increased, but efficient recycling system of waste concrete is not established yet. In this study, high quality recycled aggregate processing circuit was developed to recycle waste concrete. From the waste concrete which is a hydrated compound with coarse aggregate, fine aggregate, and cement material, high quality recycled coarse aggregate for concrete making was produced by autogenous milling and heat pretreatment method. After then, refinement process was performed to separate fine aggregate and cement material from waste concrete fines by sink float separation and hindered-settling separation. As a result, high quality recycled aggregate was produced from waste concrete by developed processing circuit.

In case of recycled fine aggregate, density and absorption ratio is lower than natural one, so it is used to lower value added products and it is limited its usage. It is reported that Compressive and tensile strength of recycled concrete is more deteriorate and shrinkage properties is very deteriorate because high absorption of recycled fine aggregate. Accordingly, in this study, it is develop that dry manufacturing system composed specific gravity separator of high-speed rotation impact type, reclaimer of minuteness fine aggregate and evaluate that shrinkage properties of recycled concrete using recycled fine aggregate at producing this system. Hereafter, it is present that fundamental data to practical use recycled fine aggregate.

In other to recycle the waste concrete produced in stiu on the construction and management in highway, the recycled aggregates were experimentally examined in a practical application for anti-freezing layer and lean concrete base course. From the results, the mobile impact crusher and the eccentric-mounted cone and jaw were superior to the others for the graded aggregates. In the case of anti-freezing layer, the recycled one was easily controlled since the dry densities, contrary to natural one, were not largely changed with the moisture contents. It was found that the 7days compressive strengths of lean concrete were above the 10MPa regardless of the crushing types. From the result of testing the bearing capacity of anti-freezing layer, it was found that when the recycled aggregates mixed with natural sand would be within the required gradations, the layer meets the requirements of limitation and the percentage to passing 2-20mm sieve increased by 5~13% because the flimsy mortars on aggregate were re-crushed by vibrated-roller compactor. Although the compressive strength of lean concrete was 71~85% of the natural coarse aggregate, the recycled aggregates are applicable to the lean concrete because they largely exceeded the required strength, 5.8MPa.

최근에 도시의 재개발계획 및 도시환경정비 등에 의해 해체되는 구조물이 증가하여 폐콘크리트의 발생량은 증가하고 있어, 이를 이용한 재생골재의 재활용이 필요한 실정이다. 그러나, 현재 생산되고 있는 재생골재는 기초적 물성이 천연골재와 비교하여 상대적으로 열악하여 이를 이용한 재생콘크리트는 일반 골재를 사용한 콘크리트에 비하여 시공성 및 굳은 콘크리트의 공학적 특성 및 내구성 저하에 대한 우려로 건설구조재료로서의 사회적인 신뢰도가 낮은 실정이다. (중략)

This study was conducted to find a way to reduce the production of cakes generated in the domestic aggregate production process. Cakes from 8 wet aggregate producers were collected and particle size was analyzed. Samples were collected step by step from an aggregate producer A, particle size analysis was performed, and the material balance was calculated before and after an sand recovery unit by modeling the production process. As a result of the particle size analysis of eight cakes, one sample contained 50% sand, and the rest contained about 5% to 25% sand. The results showing that the cake contained a variety of sand in cakes may indicate that the recovery efficiency of the sand recovery units in the field varied. Sieve analysis of the samples showed that the generation of sand particles increased 2.8 times during the third crushing compared to the second crushing, and more cake particles were generated. As a result of simulating the sand recovery unit model, the lower the cut point of the cyclone and dewatering screen, the higher the sand production and the less cake production appeared. In order to reduce the production of cake in the field, it was determined that an optimal operation of the sand recovery unit was necessary in the aggregate production process.
