Returned Concrete Treatment Admixture
Description
Batimix RCTA 100 is an additive used for the treatment of returned plastic concrete to convert it into a dry, hardened, granular state.
Adding Batimix RCTA 100 directly into the mixer drum is easy, fast and efficient. After discharging the granular material, a standard washout procedure can be used to clean the drum.
Main Purpose
The main purpose of an additive for the treatment of returned plastic concrete is to stabilize the leftover concrete in a way that allows for its safe reuse or disposal. Here’s how it works:
- Prevents Waste: The additive helps transform returned plastic (unset) concrete into a manageable material, often by reducing its rate of hardening or by breaking down the mix for reuse, which minimizes waste.
- Enables Reuse: With the additive, the treated concrete can often be re-incorporated into new batches, which is environmentally friendly and cost-effective, as it reduces the need for fresh materials.
- Enhances Workability: The additive maintains or improves the workability of the returned concrete, allowing it to be reshaped, reprocessed, or reused without compromising the quality.
- Environmental Compliance: It aids in meeting environmental standards by reducing the need to dispose of excess concrete in landfills and by lowering carbon footprint associated with cement production.
This additive plays a crucial role in sustainable concrete management and helps companies streamline operations while adhering to environmental regulations.
