The generation of waste from civil construction (WCC) in Brazil and in the world are of great proportions. However, its reuse does not occur in the same proportions that are generated by construction, is added to this, the need to find solutions for the landfilling of these wastes, unsustainable consumption of natural resources, where deposits already present signals aggregate shortage. Therefore, the use of red ceramic as recycled aggregate, reduces costs for the production of concrete, brings awareness of environmental cooperation and sustainability. In this scenario, the literature is still scarce in relation to the concrete durability properties for this kind of aggregate. Thus, this study aimed to improve and disseminate knowledge about these waste in construction. To this end, mixtures were made with water / cement ratio of 0.45; 0.55 and 0.65, where the aggregate has been replaced by natural fine ceramic aggregate in 0%, 12.5% and 25%, each percentage was subjected to pre-wetting rate of 40%, 60% and 80%. Subsequently, the durability of concrete produced with fine ceramic aggregate (FCA) was evaluated through capillary absorption, carbonation, electrical resistivity and chloride ion penetration. With the results obtained it can be concluded that the slump test was satisfactory in most mixtures, with respect to durability, in general, all mixtures with ceramic recycled aggregate had higher durability than the reference, especially in mixtures with 25% AMC. Pre-wetting rates were effective in most mixtures, showing satisfactory influence on the final results in all tests. So it managed to show great feasibility of using this waste in concrete, improving their performance.

The industrial activities increasingly generate a lot of waste and by-products being stored in the environment, with physicochemical characteristics which can most often be reused. The red mud residue from the Bayer process, is being studied for use in the production of synthetic aggregates, which aims to replace natural aggregates used in construction. This work studies the physical, chemical and mineralogical characteristics of the aggregates synthesized from a mixture of red mud, clay, sand and charcoal in 4 compositions, varying amounts of red mud and clay. The raw materials were pretreated and analyzed by X-ray fluorescence, X - ray diffraction, thermal and particle size analysis. The samples were calcined at 1200 °C for 4 hours. Then subjected to analysis by X-ray diffraction, X- ray fluorescence, differential thermal analysis and scanning for characterization and physical tests electron microscopy. For the study of the observation of synthetic mullite aggregate specimens embedded in resin, and adding 5% HF for 3 to 4 minutes were made. The material presented after sintering, apparent specific gravity average below 2 g\cm3 main crystalline phases by XRD quartz and hematite and the presence of mullite from the HF treatment can be observed.

The use of such industrial waste boiler fly ash for recycling and reuse, has intensified in recent years much for its physico-chemical characteristics that may result after the processing, in a material with good mechanical strength and can be designed for use in several areas such as construction. In this paper we obtain synthetic aggregates, after sintering process in a fixed bed reactor. For the production of aggregates pellet sewed up mixer from a mixing wheel boiler ash, clay and charcoal. After the process of ceramic sintering were measured material properties such that: porosity, density and water absorption. For the characterization of phases and mineralogical structures of the sintered material, we used the techniques of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Thus the contribution of this work is aimed at reducing environmental impacts, due to the possibility that the material produced has to replace natural aggregates.
