The traditional cement production wastes a large amount of natural resources and energy,
and causes environmental pollution, which cannot meet the green and sustainable …

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 …

This review article discusses the potential of porous geopolymers as a promising approach
for the removal of various contaminants, including heavy metals, dyes, drug residues …

Engineered cementitious composite (ECC) featuring extraordinary tensile ductility is a
promising option for many structural applications but its large-scale manufacture is not eco …

A very large amount of fly ash is generated from coal combustion, and the high value-added
and efficient utilization conversion of this solid waste into a resource remains an issue to be …

Geopolymer foam concrete (GFC) has attracted significant research interest in various fields,
thanks to their porous structure which brings the inherent merits of lightweight, acoustic and …

Geopolymers, possessing a semi-crystalline three-dimensional inorganic network generated
by the dissolution and reaction of a solid alumino-silicate source with an activating solution …

This study compares the environmental impacts of blast furnace slag-, fly ash-, and
metakaolin-based alkali-activated concretes with Portland cement (PC) concretes using life …

This paper investigates the effect of mixing parameters (that are, alkali concentration, AA
ratio, and MK/AA ratio) on the thermal conductivity of metakaolin geopolymers. The …

In this paper, an experimental investigation was carried out to study some mechanical and
microstructural characteristics of fly ash based geopolymer mortars reinforced with three …
