The geopolymer concept has gained wide international attention during the last two
decades and is now seen as a potential alternative to ordinary Portland cement; however …

To properly dispose mining-induced tailings, diverse techniques including cemented paste
fill (CPB) have been already employed. Indeed, tailings are manufactured by using different …

Iron-rich alkali-activated materials (Fe-AAM) are considered potential alternatives to ordinary
Portland cement (OPC) to limit CO 2 emissions and convert several metallurgical wastes into …

The steel production shows tremendous increase all over the world and the enormous
production of steel has subsequently led to huge amount of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag …

Synergistic use of industrial and agricultural by-products can be solution of carbon emission
