Original Abstract

During recycling of building waste, there arises fine material which is not being used; and nowadays, it ends up at waste dumps. The authors of this paper are dealing with recycling of building waste and its re-use during revitalisation of panel housing estates. Recycled building waste itself would not be suitable for green spaces because the appearance of housing estates would be affected. The authors focus on mixing of fine parts of recyclate with organic material which is gained by composting. The new mixture should have characteristics as similar as possible to natural conditions for a successful growth of vegetation, even though there is used the waste which would normally end up in dumps. This solution is interesting not only from the economic point of view but also from the point of view of environment protection.
