The construction sector has been addressing the issue of integrating sustainability into
production processes over the last few years, either through solid waste materials as …

The development of new binders, as an alternative to Portland cement (PC), by alkaline
activation, is a current researchers interest. Alkali-activated slag (AAS) binder is obtained by …

The effect of substitution the slag with silica fume on compressive strength and permeability
of alkali activated slag concrete has been examined and analyzed in this study. The use of …

In this study, changes in the mechanical and microstructural properties of alkali-activated
blast furnace slag (BFS) and BFS+ fly ash (FA) blended mortars exposed to 25, 400, 600 …

Extensive amounts of ceramic and slag wastes are produced every year by ceramic and iron
industries. Recycling of these wastes are one of the operational solutions to eliminate their …

Over the past few decades, as demand for minerals and metals has increased, the amount
and volume of wastes and tailings has also increased dramatically. The management and …

Alkali-activated materials (AAMs) refer to a group of alternative materials to ordinary
Portland cement concrete with reduced environmental footprint. Despite several benefits of …

One-part alkali-activated fly ash/slag binders have been promoted as an environmentally
friendlier alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). However, its tendency towards …

This study aims to investigate durability and microstructure of fluidized bed fly ash and
metakaolin based geopolymer exposed to elevated temperatures and acid attack …

An understanding of the rheological behaviour of OPC-based products has been widely
studied, for it is essential to determining and predicting the fresh and hardened …
