Carbon capture and storage (CCS) community has been struggling over the past few
decades to demonstrate the economic feasibility of CO 2 sequestration. Nevertheless, in …

The cement manufacturing industry, a resource-and energy-intensive sector, took up more
than 15% of total greenhouse gas emissions in China, thus finding a clean technology …

Conventional ordinary Portland cement (OPC)-based UHPC is vulnerable to explosive
spalling under high temperatures. This study aims to classify the role of calcium aluminate …

Supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) are increasingly used in concrete for
economical and environmental reasons. However, the durability of reinforced concretes …

This study aims to investigate the effects of pre-curing and carbonation duration on
compressive strength and microstructure characteristics of Portland cement paste …

Landfill disposal of municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MIFA) presents significant
environmental and economic burden. This study proposed a novel and high-efficiency …

Low calcium minerals were considered as a potential sustainable binder and reported to be
reactive to CO 2. In this research, the carbonation characteristics of C 3 S, β-C 2 S and γ-C 2 …

This investigation presents a critical analysis of calcium aluminate cements (CAC),
specifically associated with sustainability and environmental impact, and the potential of …

Even if cement is a well-consolidated material, the chemistry of cement (and the chemistry
inside cement) remains very complex and still non-obvious. What is sure is that the hydration …

This study investigated the effect of nano-silica on the hydration and conversion of calcium
aluminate cement (CAC). The specimens were exposed to 60° C to accelerate the …
