Owing to its high porosity and high surface area, zeolite has a good adsorption effect on
liquid adsorbates such as water, ammonia, organic liquids and gas adsorbates such as …

Different zeolite nanostructures were synthesized from waste aluminum cans via a low-cost
hydrothermal method using different silicon sources. The produced nanostructures were …

In this paper, the effects of magnesium slag and cement were investigated on the chemical,
mechanical and microstructure parameters of soil. An increase was recorded in pH with …

Triggered liquefaction in earthquakes, that soil displays fluid-like characteristics caused by
an on-going increase of pore water pressure and reduction of the effective stress, can …

Earthquake-induced liquefaction causes soil to exhibit fluidlike behavior due to a sudden
increase in pore water pressure and a concurrent decrease in effective stress. The …

To mitigate environmental issues caused by conventional binders and gain superior
geotechnical properties, pozzolanic materials can be considered for soil stabilization …
