Investigation of sorption properties in crushed autoclaved aerated concrete waste
Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management, 2012 Due to hardening in autoclaves and mechanical processing of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) massive, the process of production of AAC unavoidably generates waste. Up to now, there were no ways for utilisation of this type of waste.
