• Disposal as concrete aggregate or for roadbase<br />
construction is a low-value use which does not<br />
utilize the pozzolanic <strong>and</strong> cementitious potential of<br />

many industrial by-products can be incorporated<br />
into concrete, either in the form of blended<br />
portl<strong>and</strong> cement or as mineral admixtures.<br />
