Ground brick powder was activated by alkali activators at different (Al+Si)/Na ratios to find the optimal mix
Strength ratio. Macro waste solids and alkali-activated recycled brick powder were used as the aggregate and binding
CO2 emissions material, respectively, to achieve total recycling of the waste. The effects of binder-to-aggregate ratio on the
Microstructure engineering performances and multi-scale structures of the cement-free recycled waste pervious concrete were
explored. Results showed that the optimized alkali-activated recycled brick powder paste had high compressive
strength up to 50 MPa. The cement-free recycled waste previous concrete showed relatively low compressive
strength but high water permeability. Microstructural mechanisms in the aspects of pores, skeletons, and
matrix-aggregate interactions were discussed. The replacement of cement by alkali-activated brick powder
showed substantial economic and environmental benefits. The findings of this work would provide a promising
route towards solving the large-scale construction and demolition waste in China.
