The incessant production of cement has increased the amount of CO 2 being released into
the atmosphere; thus, aggravating the issue of global warming which has an adverse effect …

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 …

Solid wastes are generated from human activities which could cause damage to the
ecological environment and human beings. In recent years, there has been extensive …

Introduction The vast increase in CO2 and waste generation in recent decades has been a
major obstacle to sustainable development and sustainability. In construction industry, the …
