Abstract Portland cement manufacture emits 5–7% CO 2, which is responsible for global
warming. Geopolymers minimize CO 2 emission and may be a partial alternative to Portland …

Chemical, physical and mineralogical properties of crude and calcined local kaolinitic clay
were studied in detail in order to use it as an artificial pozzolan. The aim of this study was to …

Million tonnes of agro-industrial wastes have been generated annually in India. Recycling of
such agro-industrial wastes as supplementary cementitious material results in a solution of …

Unmodified thermal-activated recycled cement (RC) paste has unfavorable properties like
fast setting. This paper intends to modify RC by adding phosphogypsum (PG) and ground …

This paper investigates the viability of using beet molasses as a grinding aid for blended
cements with high volumes of mineral admixtures. Different ratios of beet molasses (0.01 …

Current methods used in China have failed to recycle cane molasses in an environmentally
friendly way. Meanwhile, it is an urgent concern to find a cheap alternative to the present …

Coagulation/flocculation process, F enton oxidation and combinations between them were
studied, aiming to provide an efficient method for the treatment of partially stabilized …

In this work, an attempt to recycle Cyclones' and Feeders' waste-clays in fabrication of non-
foamed and foamed geopolymers was performed. These industrial solid wastes are created …

Cement has been widely used in civil engineering, whose quality directly affects the safety of
buildings. Cement compressive strength, as an important quality indicator, its accurate …

The significant structural implications of cement durability have given rise to substantial
research on the subject. This study explores the performance of new blended cements …
