Geopolymer concrete (GPC) exhibits enhanced performance compared to conventional
concrete across various dimensions. These include decreased CO 2 emissions, elevated …

Waste glass has been highly used in alkali activated materials, but the efflorescence
behavior remains an intractable issue. This study investigates the effect of sodium aluminate …

There are many highly variable approaches to mix proportioning of alkali-activated materials
(AAMs), which considerably contribute to their great complexity and often incomparability of …

Municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA) is categorized as a hazardous waste
with significant implications on environmental safety and human health. This study tailored …

The high carbon emissions in the construction industry and the large-scale storage of high
silicon iron ore tailings (IOTs, SiO 2> 60% wt., Fe 2 O 3> 10% wt.) associated with mining …

To better understand early stiffening of AAS pastes, distinctive microstructural features by
varying the silicate modulus (Ms) have been visualized with in-situ microscopy. In addition …

Spent ion-exchange resins (IERs) constitute the major volume of solid radioactive wastes
generated by the nuclear industry and Portland cement wasteforms exhibit limitations for …

NMR, XRD, mechanical strength measurements, bound water quantification and isothermal
calorimetry were combined to contrast the degree of reaction and the paths followed by slag …

The acid resistance of cementitious materials is an important property when exposed to
aggressive acidic environments. In this study, the waste glass powder (GP) and slag as …

In this paper, the soluble salts from the air pollution control (APC) residues of a sewage
sludge incinerator and solid sodium silicate were used as a hybrid activator to prepare alkali …
