Microbial induced concrete corrosion (MICC) is recognized as one of the main degradation
mechanisms of subsurface infrastructure worldwide, raising the demand for sustainable …

Microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC) is a century old problem facing global concrete
sewer structures. Despite the substantial efforts that have been made, MIC of concrete …

Cementitious materials are alkaline in nature. As a result, they are prone to neutralisation
reaction by acids and possible deterioration. Among the existing binders, the acid resistance …

One-part alkali-activated (geopolymer) mortars based on three different silica-rich starting
materials and sodium aluminate, with and without ground granulated blast furnace slag …

This contribution presents an extensive performance evaluation of metakaolin-based
geopolymer and calcium aluminate mortars during a long-term field exposure to a …

In this study, a strongly deteriorated concrete-based sewer system was investigated by using
a multi proxy approach based on gaseous, hydro-geochemical, microbiological …

The current application of epoxy resin in the installation of fiber sheets for concrete beam
restoration presents practical challenges, limited fire resistance, and lacks environmental …

Biogenic corrosion of concrete in wastewater systems is a severe and widespread global
problem, costing billions of dollars in annual maintenance and rehabilitation. Corrosion of …

The long-term durability of sewage systems is an essential aspect of environmental
protection and the sanitary safety of society. Consequently, ensuring the durability of …

Alkali-activated slag (AAS) is an appealing alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in
aggressive acid environment considering its relatively low calcium content and potential in …
