abstract = "Our society can no longer be imagined without its modern infrastructure, which is inevitably based
on the use of various mineral and metallic materials and requires a high energy consumption.
Parallel to the production of materials, as well as the production of electricity, huge amounts of
various industrial and mining residues (waste/by-product) are generated and many of them are
sent to landfill. The European Union (EU) aims to increase resource efficiency and the supply of
”secondary raw materials“ through recycling [1], inventory of waste from extractive industries [2],
and waste prevention, waste re-use and material recycling [3].
Much of the industrial and mining waste is enriched with aluminium (Al) and therefore has a
potential to replace natural sources of Al in mineral binders with a high Al demand. However,
the use of industrial residue in mineral binders requires an extensive knowledge of its chemical
composition, including potential hazardous components (e.g. mercury), mineral composition,
organic content, radioactivity and physical properties (moisture content, density, etc.).
This manual addresses the legislative aspects, governing the use of secondary raw materials
in construction products, description of the most common Al-containing industrial and mining
residue (bauxite deposits, red mud, ferrous slag, ash and some other by products from industry),
potentiality for their reutilisation and its economic aspects, potential requirements/barriers for the
use of secondary raw materials in the cement industry and a description of belite-sulfoaluminate
cements, which are a promising solution for implementing the circular economy through the
use of large amounts of landfilled Al-rich industrial residue and mining waste cement clinker raw
mixture.
This manual was prepared by partners of the RIS-ALiCE project. It provides a popular content,
which targets relevant stakeholders as well as the wider society. Moreover, it offers education
material for undergraduate, master and PhD students.",
