Integrated CD&E waste processing and unfired GeoBrick manufacturing: upscaling a novel technology into a circular-economy business model

** 该工业研究项目 ** 旨在展示从目前未使用的废物中生产有价值产品的能力;与现有产品相比，生产出更 ** 节能的产品，碳足迹至少降低45%**。该技术将为CCC开辟新的收入来源，并减少砖块和混凝土生产的能源使用和二氧化碳排放。使废物管理行业的废物流能够用作砖块和砌块制造商新产品的原材料，有可能从垃圾填埋场转移大量材料，并通过节能方式为回收方案 ** 注入新的活力。采用专利技术的 ** 碱活化GeoBrick** 的开发，在该项目中，** 将不需要燃烧的富含硅酸钙的替代材料和氟氯化碳 ** 结合起来，将绕过目前的限制，并使建筑部门实现技术突破。**CCC将在其CD&E回收厂 ** 中扩大专利技术，以实现每天约200块砖的生产能力 **。制造的砖将用于建造一个示范结构，以研究其性能。新砖的机械和环境性能也将根据建筑监管机构的要求由第三方测试设施进行调查。** CCC有限公司拥有超过37年的经验 ** 在 ** 收集和回收CD&E废物 ** 和 ** 营销再生骨料 **。CCC的创新方法将通过使用LJMU技术提供 ** 市场就绪的产品 **，并将CFC废物转化为建筑监管机构设定的经过验证的特性，从而扰乱建筑行业。** 促进当地废物资源的消耗 ** 是最可持续和最符合道德的做法之一，可以减少排放，符合循环经济的原则，使其他行业更加绿色。该项目具有高度创新性，雄心勃勃，开拓性，** 解决建筑行业的关键环境和废物管理挑战 **。

**This industrial research project** aims to demonstrate the ability to produce a valuable product from currently unused waste; generating a more **energy-efficient product with at least a 45% lower carbon footprint** compared with existing products. The technology will open up **new sources of revenue for CCC** and reduce energy usage and CO2 emissions from brick and concrete production. Enabling the waste management industry's waste streams to be used as a raw material for a new product for brick and block manufacturers has the potential to divert a significant volume of material from landfill sites and **breathe new life into the recovery options** through an energy-efficient way.The development of an **alkali-activated GeoBrick** with patented technology, where the **combination of alternative calcium-silicate-rich materials and CFC** that do not require burning, would circumvent current limitations and enable a technological breakthrough in the construction sector.In this project, **CCC will scale up the patented technology in their CD&E recycling plant** to achieve a production **capacity of around 200 bricks/day**. The manufactured brick will be used to build a demonstration structure to investigate their performance. The new bricks' mechanical and environmental properties will be also investigated by third-party test facilities as required by the building regulator.**CCC Ltd has over 37 years of experience** in **collecting and recycling CD&E waste** and **marketing recycled aggregate**. CCC's innovative approach will disrupt the construction sector by providing **market-ready products** using LJMU technology and converting the CFC wastes with validated properties as set by the building regulators. **Boosting the consumption of local waste-based resources** is one of the most sustainable and ethical practices that lower emissions and meet the principles of circular economy, making other industries greener.This project is highly innovative, ambitious, and pioneering, **addressing key environmental and waste management challenges** in the construction industry.
