  • A study on the application of accelerated carbonation cement paste powder by wet-dry cycle technique to supplementary cementitious material

    Carbonated recycled concrete paste can serve as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) with pozzolanic properties from alumina-silica gel. Additionally, since it contains fine particles of calcium carbonate, it is expected to enhance concrete performance through its filling effect when used as SCM. Previous studies have shown that the wet-dry cycle method promotes CO₂ absorption and increases the porosity of concrete paste. Based on this, the study aims to efficiently absorb CO₂ using waste concrete paste through the wet-dry cycle method and seeks to recycle resources and enhance concrete performance by reusing the carbonation products as SCM.
