A major process step within the treatment of waste paper is the de-inking. It is a floating process yielding paper sludge as a waste product. About 50 % of this residue is used as a fuel. In several cases it is burnt at temperature of about 850 °C and thereafter the accrued ashes are collected in the flue gas filter. During the combustion, kaolinite and calcium oxide generate gehlenite and larnite. Calcite is the main component of waste paper sludge ash (PA).The chemical and mineralogical composition of PA suggests using it as a supplementary cementitious material. In modern construction materials technology, workability aspects gain importance, since for most modern materials the rheology and compaction ability are relevant for the operation at a hardened state. It was observed that PA significantly increases the water demand of powder systems, which can cause serious problems during the casting of mineral binder systems containing PA. It is therefore obvious that binder systems containing PA might demand for the use of superplasticizers. Superplasticizers are polymers with anionic backbone that cause electrostatic and steric repulsion effects upon adsorption on surfaces of particles and hydration phases. In this paper interactions between superplasticizers and waste paper sludge ashes are discussed and analysed. Based on observations of changes in the zeta potential and the dispersion of the particle system, the influence of the charge density of superplasticizers is observed and time dependent effects are demonstrated.

T1 - Multilayer concrete pavers - solutions for the mitigation of the urban heat island effect N2 - The large scale application of self-cooling concrete pavers is a future-oriented approach to reduce the urban heat island effect in inner-city areas. Making use of evaporation enthalpy, these new pavements counterbalance the absorption of solar radiation and the subsequent transfer of heat to the surrounding environment. The concrete pavers consist of a permeable top-layer and a storage layer. As the different requirements of these layers demand different concrete mixtures they are developed and optimised for their respective functions. This paper presents some results of the concrete mixture design and Solutions that combine a sufficient compressive strength as well as good water transportation properties for the face concrete layer.

The increased building and infrastructural construction caused the transformation of the landscape and to an increased land sealing in these areas. Consequently, the increased land sealing influences the air temperatures in the cities, since houses, streets and squares heat up continuously. As a result, the city and metropolitan areas became significantly warmer than their surroundings - the effect is known as Urban Heat Island (UHI). These changes have a negative impact for the quality of life. To deal with the negative effects of UHI, a high level of technical and financial effort is necessary. The costs caused by the UHI effects are in the range of several billion US dollars worldwide per year. The recent studies on UHI showed that the established methods like parks and green spaces or bright coatings for roof areas will soon not be able to effectively cope with the UHI effect in urban areas. Therefore there is a need for additional methods to mitigate UHI effect in the cities. The streets, sidewalks and squares represent approximately 30% to 40% of the inner cities areas. If these areas are designed functionally, they can have a significant impact on the UHI. This contribution focuses on development of a concrete paving stone with self-cooling properties. For the cooling effect the evaporative cooling is used. The paving stone is able to store large quantities of water and deliver during appropriate environmental conditions. This paper deals with the results of the long-term experiments on the test-fields under different climatic conditions. To interpret the test-field-results, laboratory tests were carried out as well. The paper presents and discuss the obtained results, and points out the difficulties occurred.
