A process for producing foamed concrete includes introducing air pores into aqueous concrete compositions by one or more air pore formers and/or by introducing air. The aqueous concrete compositions are based on one or more foam stabilizers, one or more protective colloid-stabilized polymers of ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the form of aqueous dispersions or water-redispersible powders, 30% to 95% by weight of cement, based on the dry weight of the components for production of the concrete compositions, optionally one or more fillers, and optionally one or more additives.

Disclosed is a method and system for blending a foam modifier with foaming agent on-line, e.g., as may be particularly useful for gypsum or cement slurries. The foam modifier comprises a fatty alcohol that is added to a gypsum or cement slurry that includes foaming agent, such as an alkyl sulfate surfactant. The fatty alcohol can be a C.sub.6-C.sub.16 fatty alcohol in some embodiments. The use of such a foam modifier can be used, for example, to stabilize the foam, reduce waste of foaming agent, improve void size control in the final product, and improve the gypsum board manufacturing process.
