dc.abstract.enThe increasing production of solid waste and the scarcity of natural aggregates as a matter of fact have made waste recycling a necessity. One such waste, which is generated in large quantities, is slag. However, slag from incineration plants may contain harmful elements that adversely affect the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of cement composites. This study presents laboratory research results on the effect of slag from the Poznan Municipal Waste Thermal Conversion Plant (Poland) on the physicochemical properties of cement composites. The samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It was shown that the slag analyzed contained significant amounts of aluminum, which had a direct effect on the structure of the concrete. An example of this influence is the release of hydrogen during reactions, which causes swelling and cracking of the concrete and reduces its mechanical strength. The authors emphasize that waste aggregate (slag) can be effectively used in the production of concrete after appropriate processing that reduces the risk of adverse effects.
