Carbon curing of concrete: process overview and concrete properties

Proceedings of 10th Symposium on Doctoral Studies in Civil Engineering
In response to the pressing problem of climate change caused by high greenhouse gas emissions from industrial processes, the European Union has set itself ambitious targets with the European Green Deal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The cement industry alone is responsible for 5 to 7 % of these emissions.

Bacterial healing of cracks in metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete exposed to high temperatures

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the bacterial healing of metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete modified with colemanite (K) and red mud (RM) exposed to high temperatures. The metakaolin‐based geopolymer concrete samples modified with 4% K and 6% RM were prepared.

Chemical Recycling as a Tool for Enabling a Second Life for Polyesters

SusMat, EarlyView.
This review presents the elucidation of the life cycle of main polyesters, detailing end‐of‐life methods, with focus of solvolysis technologies, then an analysis of LCA and TEA on literature data, an original data analytic, and, finally, a current industrial mapping of the main processes with a critical perspective on the plastic life‐cycle ecosystem ...

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

Geopolymers as a Sustainable Chemical Platform: From Building Materials to Advanced Functional Applications

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Geopolymers are presented as a chemically programmable platform whose properties emerge from activation chemistry, nanoscale disorder, and interfacial design. The review highlights sustainability challenges, the shift toward nanoengineered and hybrid systems, and the rise of halloysite‐based architectures enabling tunable structures across scales for ...

Time‐resolved synchrotron X‐ray total scattering of alkali‐activated materials with high and low calcium contents

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
Synchrotron in situ high‐energy X‐ray total scattering/pair distribution function (PDF) analysis quantifies the time‐resolved structural evolution of high and low calcium alkali‐activated binders, with PDF peak evolution tracking reaction progress and correlating with calorimetry (R2 > 0.97).

Mortars From Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto: Materials, Formulations, and Technology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents an archaeometric investigation of 18 hydraulic rendering and bedding mortars from Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto (NW Sicily). The research aimed to characterize raw materials, reconstruct manufacturing sequences, and evaluate technological proficiency through mineralogical and petrochemical analyses.

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

Boreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

Long‐Term Discharge Records from United States and European Karst Springs: Data Limitations in Trend Analysis

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Karst spring discharge trend (the change in discharge over a period greater than 30 years for each spring) does not depend on discharge variability. Insets show two springs with contrasting discharge variability (variable vs. extremely high variability) but similar discharge trends.

The Front‐End of Circular Innovation in Incumbent Firms

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Circular Economy introduces ambiguity and complexity when developing products and services, by using materials and resources differently; innovations and related business models thus deviate markedly from those evident in the “linear economy”.
