ABSTRACT
Around 461 million ton/year of C&DW are generated in EU28. Recent studies on the characterization of C&DW samples at European level revealed a predominant fraction of concrete (52% average). Over the last years, novel technology has been developed aiming to guarantee high quality recycled concrete aggregates for use in new concrete, thereby closing the concrete loop.

Veep veep-project, horizon, 2020, The most advanced concrete recycling technologies currently
produce coarse (>4mm) recycled concrete aggregates by removing cement paste from the surface of
the aggregates. However, the fine (0-4 mm) fraction, ca. recycling technologies, removing cement paste,surface of the aggregates,
prefabrication, design for reuse, reduction in carbon, footprint and embodied energy,eco-design, circular approaches for C&DW, massive retrofitting,
green jobs,recycling industry 40% of the concrete waste, still faces technical barriers to be incorporated into new concrete and consequently, is often down-cycled. At the other extreme, there are minor (e.g. glass)
and emerging (e.g. mineral wool) C&DW materials, currently accounting for 0.7% of the total,
but revealing growing rates as consequence of European regulations. research, no:, 723582- project | Horizon horizon 2020 research | No: 723582
