Experiments Using Different Types of Waste to Manufacture Ceramic Materials: Examples on a Laboratory Scale

Ceramics
Reusing waste as raw materials to produce other materials can entail a decrease in production costs and in the abusive use of natural resources. Furthermore, it can even improve the properties of the end product or material.

Impact on flow characteristics of concrete produced with artificial sand and many pozzolanic materials

Discover Civil Engineering
Overuse of cement and natural sand has damaging impacts on the environment and society. To solve this, manufactured sand can be used in place of natural sand and cement, together with pozzolanic materials—industrial waste byproducts such as metakaolin ...

Effect of natural pozzolana, pozzolanic sand, and basalt on thermal and mechanical properties of green concrete

Building Engineering
Green concrete, also known as sustainable concrete, is a building material that aims to reduce environmental impact by using natural, recycled, or sustainable materials in its production. One way to achieve sustainability in concrete is to replace cement with pozzolanic materials, which not only reduces the carbon footprint but also improves the ...

Effect of volcanic pumice powder on the properties of fiber-reinforced cement mortars in aggressive environments

Reviews on Advanced Materials Science
The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of natural pozzolana (NP) and silica fume (SF) as a partial replacement for ordinary Portland cement (OPC) to enhance the performance of fiber-cement mortar subjected to harsh environments.
