Abstrakt: Portland cement (PC) production is among the industrial activities that most emit harmful gases. Its replacement to green binders turns into a timely issue to face the global restrictions due to climate changes. In this study, some properties of cementitious pastes prepared with waste packing glass powder (GP) and silica fume (SF) were characterized in line with a prefixed alkaline equivalent limit. These materials were obtained in Northeastern Brazil. Grinding operations used to produce GP into four size ranges ([45-75] µm, < 45 µm; [25-45] µm, < 25 µm) were disclosed. X ray diffraction showed that GP and SF substitutions did not change the hydration products commonly observed in PC pastes. The portlandite content measured with thermogravimetry was affected by GP size in both unitary and binary substitutions. The compressive strength measured after 56 days of curing was dependent on portlandite and void index contents measured in hardened pastes. Scanning electron microscopy coupled to energy dispersive spectroscopy were useful to show the effect of the particle size on the pozzolanic activity. It was found that 5% of PC replacement for GP < 25 µm was enough to raise the compressive strength by ~5%. For binary substitution, the strength increasing was ~ 20 %. The collectors of solid residues are the main players of waste glass recycling in Brazil. It is expected that the results of this study contribute to take out these workers from the fringes of the citizenship.
