Fine waste concrete smaller than 5mm obtained from a recycling plant of waste concrete was used as feed and ground by a wet attrition mill. Recovery of the fine aggregate and cement hydrate powder from the ground fine waste concrete was investigated using a laboratory / pilot scale Mozley multi-gravity separator (MGS). The water absorption of the fine aggregate obtained as the high specific gravity product was less than 3.5 % and the dry density was larger than 2.4 g/cm<sup>3</sup>. The powder obtained as low specific gravity product contained about 29 % of fine aggregate. The reference for normal clinker and the mixture prepared by mixing the reference materials with 38 wt% of the powder were heated at 1,500 °C, with the hydraulic modulus adjusted to 2.18, the silica modulus to 2.8, and the iron modulus to 1.64. The phases of the clinker were identified and quantitatively determined by a microscopic point-count procedure and by the Rietveld analysis using XRD data. There was good agreement in the clinker minerals of the reference and the mixture clinkers. These results show that the fine aggregate and cement hydrate powder recovered from fine waste concrete by MGS can be recycled in cement and concrete production.
