Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world, resulting in high consumption of natural materials, thus, the reuse of waste in substitution of cement and aggregates in the production of concrete enables reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, reduction in extraction of natural raw materials, in addition to the reduction on the disposal of these wastes in nature. Given the need to develop solutions that contribute to the efficient reuse of waste, this paper aimed to analyze the state of the art of national production of concrete with waste reuse, to develop a mobile application to promote the reuse of waste in concrete production. Through bibliometric analysis of Brazilian publications on concrete with reuse of waste, we analyzed works published over a period of 20 years in the Web of Science database, revealing growing interest on the subject, especially the construction and demolition waste, being this the most published and protagonist residue of the most influential article on the subject. The analysis of the publications allowed the creation of a knowledge base on the use of waste in concrete production. These data were used in the development of an application for Android mobile devices, which allows the user to have easy access to concrete dosages with reuse of residues, obtain information on potential waste suppliers and calculate the production costs of this concrete. The system has 41 different mix proportioning, including 7 concrete types and 10 waste options, allowing the user to achieve environmental gains by replacing up to 100% of natural concrete aggregates with waste and saving up to 11.82% over cost. of concrete produced without waste.
