A stone crusher for recycled aggregates is a machine designed to crush construction and demolition waste (C&D waste) into reusable materials such as gravel, sand, or crushed stone. These recycled aggregates can be used in new construction projects, road bases, drainage systems, and more.
Types of Stone Crushers for Recycled Aggregates
1. Jaw Crusher – Best for primary crushing of large concrete blocks and demolition debris.
2. Impact Crusher – Ideal for processing softer materials like asphalt and concrete with rebar.
3. Cone Crusher – Suitable for secondary crushing of harder materials.
4. Mobile Crusher – Portable units that can be transported to demolition sites for on-site recycling.
5. Hammer Mill Crusher – Effective for breaking down mixed debris into smaller pieces.
Key Considerations When Choosing a Crusher
– Material Type: Concrete, bricks, asphalt, or mixed C&D waste.
– Output Size: Required aggregate size (e.g., 0-20mm, 20-40mm).
– Mobility: Fixed vs. mobile crushers (on-site vs. plant-based recycling).
– Contaminants: Presence of metal, wood, or plastic (may require pre-sorting or magnetic separators).
– Capacity: Tons per hour (TPH) needed.
Benefits of Using a Stone Crusher for Recycled Aggregates
✔ Reduces landfill waste
✔ Lowers construction costs by reusing materials
✔ Environmentally friendly (reduces CO₂ emissions from new aggregate prod
ion)
✔ Meets green building standards (LEED certification)
Common Applications
– Road base material
– Backfill for foundations
– Drainage layers
– New concrete mix (if properly processed)
