With the construction and development of cities, the demand for concrete is increasing. Coarse aggregate and fine aggregate account for about 3 / 4 of the total weight of concrete. As a non-renewable resource in the short term, natural aggregate is difficult to meet the growing demand. On the other hand, the concrete structures built in the early stage gradually reach the end of their service life, which will generate a large amount of construction waste. The increase in the amount of construction waste has a negative impact on the environment.

Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present application. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] Waste concrete can be screened, crushed, cleaned and graded to produce recyclable aggregates that can be used to replace natural aggregates in concrete. The application of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) can solve the problem of natural aggregate shortage and recycle waste concrete. However, compared with natural aggregate concrete (NAC), the mechanical properties and durability of RAC are relatively poor. Therefore, it is recommended to carbonize the recycled aggregate, that is, to solidify the recycled aggregate in a high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2). The Ca(OH)2 and CSH gel in the old mortar of the recycled aggregate can react with CO2 to generate CaCO3 and amorphous silica gel, which can fill the pores of the recycled aggregate and reduce the porosity of the concrete.

[0034] Therefore, the mechanical properties, durability and environmental benefits of carbonation modified recycled aggregate concrete (CRAC) have been studied. Existing studies have shown that carbonation of recycled aggregate is an effective method for fixing CO2, and that carbonation of recycled aggregate can improve the compressive and flexural strength of recycled concrete, and has a greater beneficial effect on the durability of recycled concrete. With the increase in strength, the volume of concrete can be reduced under the same bearing capacity, and with the improvement in the durability of concrete, the maintenance frequency can be reduced during the service life. Carbonation modification can achieve good environmental benefits for improving the strength and durability of concrete.

[0035] The application of CRAC can solve the problem of shortage of natural aggregates, reduce waste concrete, achieve good concrete mechanical properties and durability, and fix CO2 during the carbonation modification process, which is expected to achieve good positive net CO2 benefits. But the actual situation is not that simple. Existing studies have shown that considering that concrete waste needs to go through four steps of excavation, collection and two-phase crushing to produce recycled aggregates, the CO2 emissions in the production process of recycled aggregates are higher than those of natural aggregates. In addition, existing studies have also found that injecting or curing CO2 in concrete does not necessarily produce net carbon benefits, considering the energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the process of CO2 collection, CO2 transportation and CO2 solidification.

[0036] Compared with NAC, RAC has higher CO2 emissions during concrete production, but lower CO2 emissions during waste treatment and landfill. Carbonation modification increases CO2 emissions during CO2 collection, CO2 transportation, and CO2 curing, but it can fix CO2 and improve concrete strength and durability. Therefore, the application of recycled aggregates and carbonation modification have both advantages and disadvantages in generating net climate benefits. Whether CRAC does have a positive net CO2 benefit should be taken seriously and quantitatively analyzed.

[0037] This application can effectively calculate the carbon emissions and carbon benefits of green and low-carbon concrete throughout its life cycle by establishing a complete assessment method system.

[0038] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
