Abstract
Abstract Circular waste management is the answer to the daily waste of all types. Wind power plants installed in the 1990s are ending their service life of turbine blades, hence the need to properly manage this waste. The aim of the article is to investigate the mechanical properties of mining and industrial waste The article presents the results of research on geopolymers based on coal shale of the Staszic mine and waste from wind turbine blades in three types of compositions: 50/50, 72/25, 25/75. The results of the research show that these materials can be used as fillers for products that do not require high strength values.
