Publishable summary
In the Deliverable 1.3 "Analysis in research laboratories of the selected CWD", a comprehensive
protocol of analysis of the Secondary Raw Materials (SRM), obtained from selected
Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW), is described in terms of chemical and physical
parameters. Within the InnoWEE project, results will serve as a basis for the assessment of SRM
performance in geopolymer binders.
The multi-analytical protocol employed for the characterization of the SRM from CDWs,
selected for the production of prefabricated panels, allowed reaching a full degree of
knowledge of materials, and verified that they meet the prescribed compositional, textural and
morphological standards for the defined purposes.
