Effect of Gravel Size, Microwave Irradiation (1 to 2.5 min), Moisture, and Quenching on Aggregate Properties of Chert Gravel: Valorizing a “Waste” Byproduct of Sand Quarrying

Chert gravel, a byproduct of sand quarrying, remains an underutilized material in construction due to its low microwave (MW) absorption and high mechanical strength. The present study deals with the potential of MW irradiation as a novel, energy-efficient method for processing chert gravel into high...
