Abstract: The prospect of reusing demolished cellular lightweight concrete (CLC) and autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) block dust as partial replacement of ordinary Portland cement in cement mortar is studied. The microstructural analysis confirms that CLC and AAC block dust have specific pozzolanic properties. The experimental result revealed that up to 20% replacement of CLC or AAC block dust does not reduce the strength of the mortar significantly. Further replacement of CLC or AAC leads to delayed hydration of the mix and porous microstructure which results in the lower compressive strength of mortar. Such use of waste CLC and AAC dust can reduce the environment pollution without compromising the strength significantly
