The objective of this study was to analyze the physico-mechanical properties of gypsum boards including plastic waste aggregates from cable recycling. The plastic cable waste is incorporated into the gypsum matrix without going through any type of selection and/or treatment, as it is obtained after the cable recycling process. In the experimental process, gypsum boards of different dimensions were manufactured and tested for their Young’s modulus, shock-impact resistance, flexural strength, thermal conductivity, and thermal comfort. The results obtained show a significant increase in the elasticity of the boards with plastic waste (limited cracking), compliance with the minimum value of flexural strength, and a slight improvement in the thermal conductivity coefficient (lower energy demand) and surface comfort (reduced condensation and greater adherence). Therefore, the analyzed material could provide a suitable alternative to currently marketed gypsum boards, contributing to sustainable construction not only in new constructions, but also in building renovations.

This paper shows the characterization of a new lightened gypsum-based material for use in buildings. A plaster material has been designed with a polymeric compound based on polyvinyl acetate, bicarbonate and a boric acid solution, which reduce the density and thermal conductivity by up to 20% and 30%, respectively. In addition, tests have been carried out with the lightened plaster material reinforced with glass (GF), basalt (BF), polypropylene (PPF) and wood (WF) fibers. A significant improvement in mechanical properties was achieved. All samples obtained resistance values greater than 2 MPa in flexion and 3 MPa in compression. Physico-chemical analysis were also carried out. The study is completed with a statistical analysis, where confidence intervals have been obtained for the mean at 95% confidence for each of the physical properties studied.

This article analyzes the effect of fire on plasterboards containing plastic cable aggregates. Before, their physical and mechanical properties have been studied and published, whose results comply with the applicable regulations. In this research, considering the plaster coating to be a passive means of trying of reduce the flammability of the aggregate polymers. In construction materials, and more specifically, materials containing polymers, fire resistance is a requirement in which it is necessary to examine the effects and emission of gases from the combustion. To verify the initial hypothesis, a real test was performed, using a direct fire set in a Madrid fire station, making calculations by estimating the gas emissions of a fire in a hypothetical room. The results reflect the contribution of the plaster, acting as a physical barrier to the passage of heat and/or volatile substances, in delaying the fire’s effect on the polymers. In addition, using plastic waste from cables as a secondary raw material, the number of incinerations necessary in landfills receiving this type of waste may be reduced, thereby decreasing the potential emission of contaminants into the atmosphere and contributing to the sustainability of our planet.

Non-destructive testing can be used to determine some of the most relevant physical properties of building materials. In this work, two low-cost measuring devices were developed capable of determining the variation in real-time of the percentage of humidity that is produced in the construction of gypsum and plaster during the hardening process. For this, an Arduino resistive sensor and a capacitive sensor of our design were used. The results show how it is possible to determine the variations in mixing water content during the seven days of curing established by the UNE-EN 13279-2 standard as well relate to the mechanical resistance of the test specimens with the same percentage of humidity. Additionally, the study was completed with the determination of the formation of the dihydrate compound linked to this setting process in the test specimens by conducting X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis tests at different ages of the samples.

The construction and demolition waste can be used as an alternative with a lower environmental impact compared to the use of natural aggregates in the concrete and mortar manufacture. In this work, it has been performed an analysis of lime and cement mortar properties made with ceramic recycled aggregates reinforced with three types of fibers: glass, basalt and carbon. An experimental campaign has been carried out which includes the chemical and physical characterization of the materials and the statistical analysis of the results obtained. It has been proven that the addition of fibers improves the mechanical properties of the material and decreases its retraction, which favors the incorporation of recycled aggregates in the mortars manufacture. Based on the results obtained, it can be stated that carbon fiber is the best performing reinforcing material, as it has been demonstrated in this statistical analysis.

Gypsum is a material that has been widely used since ancient times in building and industrial construction. Due to the great development of prefabricated construction in the last years, diverse authors have tried to improve the properties of plaster panels and boards through its composition variations. The aim of this study is to determine what type of fibre, among the most used in plaster mixing ones, presents better properties to be used in prefabricated elements. For this, five types of fibres were used: two natural (wood and straw) and thee synthetic (glass, basalt and polypropylene), performing all the tests according to the standard UNE-EN 132792:2006. The conclusions show after statistical analysis that fiberglass presents better results for its application in the production of gypsum prefabricated panels and boards. Key words: gypsum-based composite, natural fibre, synthetic fibre, prefabricated.

The aim of this article is to analyse the water-resistant properties of gypsum compounds with plastic cable waste added in order to determine the suitability of their use as an alternative to combat moisture problems in buildings. In the experimental process, test samples were made and subjected to capillary water absorption, water vapour permeability, wet chamber, water-stove cycle and total water absorption tests, and their porosimetry was also studied using the mercury porosimetry test. The results showed a significant decrease in water absorption and retention capacity. This is due in part to the reduced pore volume of the compounds that is achieved without affecting the hygrothermal properties of the gypsum products and keeping their mechanical properties above the minimum values indicated in the regulations. Thus, the material studied is a good alternative to the gypsums currently available on the market to be applied in the areas of buildings most exposed to water and it contributes to reduce environmental impacts.

This work presents the results of a treatment process of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash using a solution of sodium carbonate as a stabilizing agent. The effectiveness of the treatment was evaluated by means of leaching test for waste characterization according to European Standard, with special focus on soluble chlorides and heavy metals (Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu). Chemical, XRD and DTA/DTG analysis were used to gain insight into the chemical changes induced in the fly ash by the treatment. In the fresh fly ash, the total dissolved solids and chloride concentration exceed the acceptance limits for hazardous waste whereas fresh fly ash was classified as hazardous waste concerning Pb. The carbonated fly ash was considered as non-hazardous waste according to all studied parameters. XRD and DTA/DTG analysis of treated fly ash showed that chlorine compounds have been transferred into the liquid phase during the stabilization process. The chloride removal from the ash was complete and fast irrespective of the sodium carbonate concentration and solid/liquid ratio in the stabilization process within the range studied. The treated fly ash was mainly composed by calcite and portlandite and the chemical analysis after the leaching test demonstrated that more than 98% of heavy metals remained in the treated fly ash. Therefore, the stabilization procedure of MSWI fly ash with a solution of carbonate ions achieved the separation of soluble salts and the leaching stabilization of heavy metals simultaneously in one step.

The design of greener materials is of great interest to develop eco-efficient construction systems, causing less environmental impact and following circular economy criteria. Accordingly, the current study aimed to analyze the viability to incorporate glass waste—from construction and demolition—in gypsum composites, promoting a circular economy in the building construction sector. Gypsum-based composites were formulated using different percentages and particle sizes of glass waste, and samples were prepared. These samples were tested in the laboratory, and the following characteristics were determined: dry density, surface hardness, mechanical strength, water absorption by capillarity, and thermal conductivity. Analysis comparing these composites to reference gypsum without additions showed that it is viable to prepare gypsum composites with the addition of glass waste to reduce water absorption by capillarity, improve mechanical strength, and increase surface hardness. All composites comply with the minimum requirements set by regulations. Therefore, these composites can be applied in the manufacturing of gypsum prefabricated elements or as interior coatings requiring special surface hardness, improved water behavior, and mechanical strength properties.

Mineral wool is currently the most used insulation in the European Union, and quantities of this waste have increased alarmingly in the last decade, making it essential to recycle or reuse the material, which is not current practice. This study aims to verify the feasibility of compounds of a cement base with additives of insulating mineral fibre residues recovered from the recycling of construction and demolition waste (CDW). For this purpose, experiments were designed to classify the physical–chemical behaviour of architectural mineral wool waste, and that of mortars incorporating them to determine their porosity due to the effects of these fibres on the properties of the compounds. The results obtained show that both the structure and chemical composition as well as the microstructure of the reinforced mortars are viable, and that they would therefore be a sustainable alternative to the current mortars of composite materials.

The presence of hazardous chemicals in wastewater produced by industrial activities and human metropoles is threating the availability of safe drinking water. The development of a multifunctional material coupling adsorption and photocatalytic activity is hereby particularly promising for the removal of pollutants. We have proved the adsorption and catalytic activity of NiFe2O4-layered double hydroxide (LDH) composite through the degradation of methyl orange (MO) at room temperature under visible light. This degradation is enhanced by using a set of small light-emitting diodes (LEDs) providing a uniform 405 nm UV light. The remediation process is based on a first-step rapid adsorption of MO molecules by the LDH structures followed by the photocatalytic oxidation of the pollutant by the (·OH) radicals produced by the NiFe2O4 semiconductor nanoparticles (NPs). The magnetic properties of the ferrite NPs allow a facile separation of the composite from the liquid media via a simple magnet. NiFe2O4-LDH composite could find wide application as a highly effective adsorbent/oxidizing catalyst operating under visible or near UV light.
