The quantities of waste rocks and tailings generated by the mining industry have been
increased in the last decades. The accumulation and the surface storage of these mine …

The phosphate industry produces huge volumes of waste (hundred million tons per year).
These wastes are generally surface landfilled, leading to significant environmental impacts …

A proper and detailed understanding of the thermal stability of Fe-rich fayalite slag-based
alkali-activated materials (AAMs) is important due to their potential use in refractory and fire …

This research used gene expression programming (GEP) and multi expression
programming (MEP) to determine the compressive strength (CS) of alkali-activated material …

The phosphate ore production is steadily increasing due to its high demand for agriculture,
medicine, and others. Ore extraction generates a considerable quantity of waste rocks that …

Geopolymers have been intensively explored over the past several decades and considered
as green materials and may be synthesised from natural sources and wastes. Global …

There is presently a global surge in the demand on extractive industries for their product,
which is associated with extraction, processing, and production of valuable minerals through …

In this paper, the use of synthetic fibers as reinforcement of geopolymer matrix produced
from phosphate mine tailings was investigated. Non-heat-treated phosphate sludge (PS) …

This paper investigated the feasibility of upcycling coal gangue fines (CGF), a secondary
waste generated during the production of coal gangue aggregates, as the substitution of fly …

The cement industry's commitment to reducing CO2 emissions has led to exploring
alternative processes and supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). These include …
