Sustainable Use of Reservoir Sediment through Partial Application in Building Material

Abstract: Sediment, often considered a by-product of various activities within river basin management to be disposed of, or a pollutant to be controlled, is increasingly being acknowledged as a resource in need of management. The paper deals with the possibility of reusing sediment from two Slovak reservoirs (Klusov and Ruzin) as an alternative raw material in concrete production. Concrete specimens were prepared by a combination of original reservoir sediment, reservoir sediment mechanically activated by dry milling, r… Show more

“…Traditional building materials, such as concrete, are increasingly being replaced with advanced composite materials in accordance with the principles of sustainability in civil engineering. One of the options involves a partial replacement of cement with active cementitious substances, such as mineral or industrial solid byproducts and wastes (metakaolin, coal and municipal solid waste fly-ash, agro-technical ash, quarry dust, blast furnace slag and reservoir sediments) [8][9][10][11][12][13]. This practice is favorable to the industry, resulting in a concrete that has lower costs and environmental impact, and greater long-term strength, and durability [14].…”

“…Standard sand according to the requirements of CSN EN 196-1 [20] was used in three fractions marked PG I (0.08-0.5 mm), PG II (0.5-1 mm), and PG III (1-2 mm). These fractions are represented in a volume ratio of PG1:PG2:PG3-33.3:33.3:33.3%.…”

“…Their results have shown that after 28 days, the compressive strength of most samples was higher than 96% of the reference samples of concrete [12,19]. Apart from that, dry sludge can be used as binder or filler for the production of concrete mixture, following a study on the use of sediment from water management tanks [20]. Because this material has natural fineness, it can be used as the product replacing very commonly used limestone-cement fillers.…”

“…According to the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP-SETAC) [4], the building sector consumes about 40% of the energy, 25% of the water, and 40% of the resources available on Earth, while producing 30% of greenhouse gases. However, compared to other industrial areas, the construction industry has the greatest potential to achieve a significant reduction in negative impacts using new technologies and also sustainable materials, such as with reused, recycled, or recovered materials content, or materials made using renewable resources [5]. For example, every tone of produced ordinary Portland cement releases an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.…”
