“…Sakulich [14] reviewed the effect on concrete durability when using several SCM to replace cement such as slag, fly ash, silica fume, and rice husk ash. Esmaeili and Oudah [15] reviewed the utilization of recycled glass as a partial replacement to cement in ultra-high-performance concrete. Liew et al [4] categorized the waste materials that can be used in the production of GC into three groups, namely industrial, agricultural, and municipal wastes.…”

In recent years, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emission has been increased by 22% in Saudi Arabia, and the building construction sector is one of the major contributors to increased CO2. This necessitates Saudi Arabia's introduction of energy efficiency and sustainability in the construction sector. Green Concrete (GC) has recently gained popularity in the Kingdom as it is environmentally friendly and produced from waste and residual materials. However, every new technology faces application challenges that can stymie its adoption in the industry. As a result, this study aims to determine the potential benefits and application challenges of using GC technology in Saudi Arabian's construction industry. This study conducted a comprehensive literature review of the subject followed by a questionnaire survey to field practitioners and interviews with professional experts to determine the potential benefits and application challenges of GC technology. In addition, an analysis of GC trail test documents implemented in a local project and a meeting with the project team were also conducted to determine the trial test's advantages and implementation challenges. The major benefits identified in this study are reduced energy use, waste material reuse, CO2 reduction, natural resource conservation, and reduced landfill numbers, while the major implementation challenges identified in this study are discouraging building codes and a lack of information and understanding of GC benefits. Subsequently, recommendations for government agencies, private sector businesses, and concrete suppliers are provided to improve the benefits of GC, resolve application challenges, and promote and accelerate its adoption in Saudi Arabia.

“…It could become a sustainable building material. There are many research projects [6][7][8][9][10] where waste glass was used to replace natural aggregates or additives were used instead of cement. Photovoltaic glass cannot be reused as it would contaminate the glass charge.…”

This article presents the results of extracts of recycled photovoltaic glass and cement composites, in which 100 % of natural aggregates were replaced with recycled photovoltaic glass in various fractions. Test specimens in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter and height of 40 x 40 mm were prepared according to the designed formulas R1 to R5. The R0 formula was a comparative one without the replacement of natural aggregates. The test specimens were stored in a water bath for 28 days. The test specimens together with the recycled glass fr. 0/10 mm were subsequently subjected to extract tests according to Decree No. 294/2005 Coll. The incorporation of photovoltaic glass into the cement matrix has significantly reduced the content of selenium, molybdenum and cadmium. The concentrations of these toxic metals were reduced by 98.5 % in case of selenium, by 88.9 % in case of cadmium, and by 97.5 % in case of molybdenum.

“…Entre los diferentes materiales de desecho, los residuos de vidrio generan una enorme preocupación, de hecho, cada año se producen más de un millón de toneladas de residuos de vidrio en todo el mundo [18]. A diferencia de otros desechos, es un compuesto inerte y no biodegradable, que permanece durante muchos años en el suelo y en las fuentes hídricas, agotando el espacio para su disposición, por lo cual, se convierte en una amenaza para el medio ambiente [19].…”

El interés de incluir residuos de vidrio en el hormigón se atribuye a la creciente necesidad para su disposición, además de minimizar el uso de las materias primas empleadas en la preparación del concreto tradicional. Los residuos de vidrio, tienen un efecto sobre las propiedades en estado fresco y endurecido, sin embargo, son escasos los reportes que dan cuenta de su efecto en las emisiones de CO2. En este trabajo, se presenta una revisión de diferentes reportes que incorporan residuos de vidrio en reemplazo de los agregados o el cemento y se realizó la estimación de las emisiones de CO2. Los resultados muestran que el reemplazo de cemento por residuos de vidrio genera un efecto positivo sobre la resistencia y disminuye las emisiones de CO2, siendo mayor cuanto mayor es el reemplazo de cemento, se encontró una reducción del 22% en las emisiones para un 20% de reemplazo. Interest to include waste glass in concrete can be ascribed to the growing need for waste disposal, as well as to minimize traditional raw material usage in concrete preparation. Glass waste has a direct effect on the properties in a fresh and hardened state; however, there are few reports that account for its effect on CO2 emissions. In this paper, a review of different reports that incorporate glass waste in replacement of aggregates or cement is presented and the estimation of CO2 emissions was made. The results show that the replacement of cement by glass waste generates a positive effect on strength and decreases carbon dioxide emissions, being greater the greater the cement replacement, a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions was found for a 20% replacement.
