Analysis of the textural characteristics and pore size distribution of a commercial zeolite using various adsorption models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Analysis of the textural characteristics and pore size distribution of a commercial zeolite (Sigma Aldrich, product No. 96096) have been conducted experimentally using a surface analyzer by measuring the N2 adsorption isotherm at 77 K. The resulting data

Steel Slag as Sand Replacement in Concrete: A Systematic Review of Fresh, Mechanical, and Durability Properties

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The sand crisis has received growing attention in recent years, and a number of substitutes have been examined by researchers in order to reduce the use of river sand. Typical substitutes are industrial by‐products that would otherwise require land for waste disposal. Steel slag (SS) is one such by‐product that can be used as a replacement for alluvial

Modification to Optimise the Use of Agricultural Waste (MSA and SCBA) as Partial Cement Replacements Using Reactivity Indices for Concrete Strength Prediction

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The cement industry contributes significantly to global carbon emissions, necessitating a transition towards a net‐zero carbon footprint for the industry. This study examines the feasibility of combining two types of agricultural waste, maize straw ash (MSA) and sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA), as a sustainable partial cement replacement in concrete ...

Innovations in the Cement Industry: Advancing Towards Sustainable Concrete Production

open access: yesJurnal Rekayasa Kimia & Lingkungan
Slag, an artificial pozzolan derived from the by-product of metal ore smelting, exhibits notable richness in active silica and alumina. This investigation scrutinizes the influence of slag as a clinker substitute on cement quality. The study explores the

Towards sustainability: artificial intelligent based approach for soil stabilization using various pozzolans [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and The Environment, 2012
Due to the gradual depletion in the conventional resources, searching for a more rational road construction approach aimed at reducing the dependence on imported materials while improving the quality and durability of the roads is necessary. A previous study carried out on a sample of Egyptian soil aimed at reducing the road construction cost, protect ...

Plant responses to urban gradients: Extinction, plasticity, adaptation

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 112, Issue 12, Page 2861-2875, December 2024.
Herbaceous plants often change their morphology in response to urban conditions: grass cutting, altered soils, warmer temperatures and being surrounded by tightly‐packed buildings. These changes are sometimes hereditary, which suggests that city management and planning affect the ability of plants to survive and evolve in urban environments.

Effect of high‐range water reducer and W/C ratio on the fresh and mechanical properties of fiber‐reinforced natural zeolite SCC

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 25, Issue 5, Page 4075-4102, October 2024.
Abstract The present study aims to investigate how the use of high‐range water reducer (HRWR) and variations in water/cement (W/C) ratio affect the properties of self‐consolidating concrete (SCC) while taking into account different proportions of polypropylene fibers (PF) and natural zeolite (NZ). A total of 28 samples were cast and analyzed.

Pozzolan Concrete Durability on Sulphate Attack [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sulfate attack and its effects are important from both scientific and industrial viewpoints. It is perceived that cements containing pozzolan have better performance in sulfatesolutions,since the pozzolanic reactions reduce the quantity of calcium ...
