Sustainable development has been growing concern worldwide, with special emphasis to its
effects on climate change. An important action to reduce the environmental damage is the …

Sugar and alcohol industries generate large amount of wastes that could produce ashes of
great reactivity with pozzolan properties. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the …

Due to the concern with the environmental impacts caused by the gases emitted by the
cement industry and by the inadequate disposal of wastes generated in the sugar-alcohol …

Recent researchers are giving more importance to cut the practice of ordinary Portland
cement (OPC) by replacing the cementitious properties with industrial by-products in …

The aim of this paper is to assess the pozzolanic reactivity of sugar cane straw ash (SCSA)
obtained through an auto-combustion process and the mechanical properties of SCSA …

This paper reviews critically and reports on the present knowledge on the use and
characteristics of sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) as a pozzolanic material which has been …

Sugar cane bagasse is a residue of the sugar-alcohol industry, and its main destination is
represented by burning boilers for power generation. The bagasse cogeneration of power …

The aims of this work were to evaluate the reactivity of sugarcane straw ashes (SCSA)
burned under controlled conditions and to analyze their reactivity in blended cement and …

Portland cement (OPC) production is one of the most contaminating greenhouse gas
producing activities. In order to reduce OPC consumption, several alternatives are being …

In this study, the sugar cane bagasse from Burkina Faso has been calcined at temperatures
ranging from 550 to 750° C with a heating stage of 2 or 3 h to produce pozzolanic ashes as …
