Dredging of ports, harbours and waterways generates vast amounts of sediments that find few applications and need to be disposed of. In the port of Antwerp, Belgium, each year 450,000 t (dry matter) of dredging sediments are mechanically dewatered and stockpiled. This paper investigates flash calcination of the clay-rich dredged sediments as a sustainable solution to develop novel pozzolanic supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) for blended cement.
