Abstract: One of the most effective ways to increase the national wealth of the DPR is to ensure the rational and economic use of material resources. For this purpose, it is proposed to widely use the complex processing of raw materials, low-waste, waste-free and energy-saving technologies, to involve in every possible way local types of raw materials and materials, to utilize secondary resources [1, 2]. The use of slag-alkaline concrete in road construction is proposed, which is due to environmental and economic factors – the need to utilize accumulated industrial waste, improve the environmental safety of roads and the lower cost of slag-alkaline concrete compared to asphalt concrete. In the Donetsk People’s Republic, as a result of many years of work of mining and metallurgical enterprises, thermal power plants, a large amount of solid waste has accumulated – rock dumps, metallurgical slags and ash and slag from TPPs, therefore the use of these industrial waste as secondary raw materials is relevant, especially in road construction. Slag occupies huge areas that could be used for agricultural purposes, for any structures. In addition, there is a purely psychological problem: to live and work in a region that is a dumping ground for metallurgical waste. Such a neighborhood does not give pleasure to anyone [3]. Therefore, a simple, cheap and safe method of disposal of slag waste is proposed.

Keywords: industrial waste, slag, recycling, asphalt concrete, slag-alkali concrete, environmental safety, water absorption, frost resistance.
