Abstract: Granite has excellent characteristics, such as high strength, high hardness, low water absorption, good chemical stability, strong durability and beautiful colour, therefore it is widely used in the preparation of high-quality building stone. However, the cutting production process of granite produces a large amount of saw mud, occupying a great quantity field and polluting the environment. Based on the current situation of granite saw mud stockpiles and the hazards, the main treatment methods of granite saw mud were introduced, the most common reutilization ways of granite saw mud were discussed, the application and development of granite saw mud in glass-ceramics, foamed ceramics, ceramic glazes and aerated concrete block were summarized, providing references for the efficient use of granite waste in the field of construction materials.

Key words: granite saw mud, glass-ceramics, foamed ceramics, ceramic glazes, aerated concrete block
