Clays for Low‐Carbon Cements: Overview, Progress, and Challenges

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2026.
This review provides a critical overview of recent developments of activated clays to function as artificial pozzolans. After a thorough description of the clays that yield good pozzolanic performances, selected examples are given on thermal and mechanical activations. Chiefly, general correlations are extracted from reported data despite its scattered

Evolution of Unconfined Compressive Strength and Microstructural Properties of Geopolymers From Blended Waste Concrete Powder and Metakaolin

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The use of waste concrete powder (WCP) in geopolymer synthesis offers a sustainable method for recycling construction and demolition waste (CDW). However, its low reactivity and high calcium content frequently result in geopolymers with inadequate mechanical strength.

In-situ early age hydration of cement-based materials by synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction [PDF]

, 2015
Cement based binders are building materials of worldwide importance. Since these samples are very complex, the knowledge/control of their mineralogical composition are essential to design and predict materials with specific/improved performance. Rietveld

Evaluation of the Performance of a Composite Material Made From Lateritic Soil, Crushed Granite, and Cement for Use as the Base Layer of Road Pavement

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The base layer is important for the road pavement structural performance. This study aims to monitor the performance of various local composite materials as road construction materials. To do this, an experimental study treated the improvement of geotechnical properties of a lateritic gravel, initially nonadopted as a base layer, by using three ...

Ligand‐Engineered Mesoporous Silica: Cutting‐Edge Architectures for Targeted Toxic Heavy Metal Sequestration—A Review

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The mesoporous silica (MPS) modified with organic ligands has been effectively employed since last decade as a nonconventional, highly efficient, and selective adsorbent for the removing of heavy metal ions (HMIs) from their aqueous media. Therefore, this research paper is focused on reviewing various research works carried out on the use of ligand ...

Cementitious Additives for Chloride Ion Immobilization of Flue Gas Desulfurization Brine

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Waste management in coal‐fired power plants presents a significant industrial challenge. Co‐disposal of flue gas desulfurization sludge and reject fly ash (RFA) requires solidification/stabilization before landfilling, due to high concentrations of toxic heavy metals and salts.

Stone‐Cutting Dust as a Sustainable Supplementary Cementitious Material: A Comprehensive Review of Its Physicochemical and Mechanical Effects

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) remains the most common binder used in construction and accounts for nearly 7%‐8% of the world’s CO2 emissions due to calcination of limestone and high energy use during clinker production. Reducing OPC content using SCMs is one of the major strategies to achieve sustainable construction.

Optimized Hybrid Learning Model for Strength Prediction of Textile Effluent Sludge‐Based Concrete

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Hybrid machine and deep learning models were developed to predict the mechanical performance of concrete incorporating textile effluent sludge (TES), highlighting its potential as a sustainable supplementary cementitious material. LSTM and SVM models achieved the highest accuracy for compressive and tensile strength prediction, respectively.
