Social and economic development trends require that the economy be based on sustainable consumption and sustainable production patterns by means of implementing an effective recirculation policy – this is also important from an environmental perspective. Consequently, the design of economic processes becomes increasingly complex. This paper presents method and results of environmental life-cycle assessment of selected stages of the concrete recycling process. The results will be used in a further, holistic assessment of managing the concrete waste on the construction site.
