摘要:The paper presents the results of recycling of asbestos-containing waste (ACW). It is shown that hydraulic activity of ACW is increased using mechanochemical treatment in the vibratory ball mill in presence of anionic surfactant. Experimental results show that substitution of 10% w.t. of cement on activated asbestos-containing waste leads to increasing of the compressive strength to 20%. Finally, the effect of the activated ACW on the hardening kinetics of mortars is examined.
