DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE, ALKALI-ACTIVATED BINDERS FOR CONSTRUCTION
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2023)This work contributes to the design and production of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) of lower environmental impact than Portland cement (PC) products. AAM binders result from the reaction of an activator and a precursor. ... -
An evaluation of the feasibility of industrial wastes and natural materials, as precursors, for the production of alkali activated materials (AAMs)
(2019)In order to face current compelling environmental problems affecting the planet, the construction industry needs to adapt. It is widely acknowledged that there is a need for durable, highperformance, low-greenhouse gas ... -
An Evaluation of the Feasibility of Several Industrial Wastes and Natural Materials, as Precursors, for the Production of Alkali Activated Materials
(2019)In order to face current compelling environmental problems affecting the planet, the construction industry needs to adapt. It is widely acknowledged that there is a need for durable, high-performance, low-greenhouse gas ... -
Potential of spent fluid cracking catalyst (FCC) waste for low-carbon cement production
(2023)Spent fluid cracking catalyst (FCC) waste is produced to convert petroleum crude oil into gasoline, and its main component is a reactive zeolite known as faujasite. This paper studies low-energy treatments to enhance ... -
A study of the parameters that determine the reactivity of sugarcane bagasse ashes (SCBA) for use as a binder in construction
(2020)This paper intends to contribute to the use of waste, as binder replacement, to lower the negative environmental impact of construction. Sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) is an agricultural waste which has been reported as ...
