title = "Sustainable, innovative and energy-efficient concrete, based on the integration of all-waste materials: the SUS-CON project",
abstract = "The SUS-CON project aims at integrating waste materials in the production cycle of concrete, for both ready-mixed and pre-cast applications, resulting in an innovative light-weight, eco-compatible and cost-effective construction material, made by all-waste raw materials and characterized by enhanced thermal insulation performances and low embodied energy and CO2. Lightweight recycled aggregates will allow making concrete lightweight and heat-insulating. On the binder side the aim is the complete cement replacement by waste materials of high silicon dioxide content. Preliminary results leading to propose the project idea are also presented in the paper.",
