Abstract This paper primarily examines the flowability, physical appearance, mass loss, residual compressive strength (RCS), and flexural (RFS) properties of steel (ST) basalt (BA) fiber‐added sustainable ultra‐high performance geopolymer cement (UHPGPC) mortars exposed to high‐temperature effects. According results obtained, ST BA fibers adversely influence workability UHPGPC thus significantl...

Geopolymer concrete and mortar have evolved over the years as potential alternatives for reducing greenhouse gases associated with cement production. This current research was aimed at investigating optimum dosage concentration of sodium hydroxide required to leach out silica alumina oxides in fly ash geopolymerization take place. Blackish grey from Morupule, Botswana, synthesized by varying (N...

Raw water treatment and coal-based power generation facilities produce a high level of waste to the environment annually. A low recycling scheme has worsened situation wastes usually end up in landfill. Further environmental degradation could be prevented by re-utilising for production alternative bricks. Additionally, development low-fired brick from can comparatively reduce energy consumption...

Geopolymer binders that combine aluminosilicate materials (i.e., precursors) with alkali activators are a viable and environmentally friendly alternative to ordinary Portland cement. While fly ash, slag, silica fume, metakaolin the most extensively investigated precursor materials, recent studies demonstrate feasibility of using low amorphous aluminosilicates (LAA) for geopolymer synthesis. Was...

By posing the question of what will be definition sustainable development in future, it can almost seen that principle “no waste” and production new materials with less a negative environmental impact have high priority. To further develop environmentally friendly materials, is necessary to know about drivers as well evaluate effects conventional construction. According definitions characterist...

Geopolymer concrete significantly contributes to reducing harmful emissions by the cement industry and replacing it with by-product materials produced different industries. Geopolymers have enhanced mechanical properties compared cementitious products, however, their ductility impact resistance tend be relatively low. Additionally, used rubber tires provide a significant environmental risk. Con...

Geopolymer, a sustainable alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), offers reduced embodied energy, lower carbon emissions, enhanced durability, eco-compatibility, and waste valorization potential. In confining structural members, geopolymer still has limitations with respect its brittleness other properties. Enhancing the properties of by adding banana fibers (BF) fly ash (FA) form geotex...

Geopolymer concrete is a sustainable substitute for traditional Portland cement concrete. In addition, rising carbon taxes on emissions and energy-intensive materials like lime, impacts the cost of industrial by-products due to their pozzolanic nature. This research evaluates compressive strength flexural geopolymer concrete, mortar. mortar data were used assessment employing an analytical appr...

Lead–zinc tailings are the typical solid wastes in mines with high yield and low utilization rates some countries at present. They mainly stockpiled reservoirs, occupying massive land resources threatening health of environment. One advantages building material production sustainability is ability to utilize large amounts industrial wastes, use lead–zinc materials an effective way meet dual nee...

Summary Our objective is to present selected rheological and mechanical properties of rock-based geopolymers contaminated with different concentrations drilling fluids. The possible flash setting the maximum intake fluids before seeing a dramatic deterioration are presented. Rock-based designed for cementing conductor surface casing were prepared cured up 28 days at 22°C atmospheric pressure. W...
