Re-use of Natural Clayey Waste as Supplementary Cementitious Material
In 2015 total world cement manufacture was estimated at 4.6 billion tons and the CO2 emissions from cement plants were equal to approximately 3.7 billion metric tons, representing about 7% of the global anthropogenic emissions.

State-of-the-art-review on rice husk ash: A supplementary cementitious material in concrete
Rice husk ash (RHA) is a good supplementary cementitious material for concrete production, as it requires low energy and emits negligible greenhouse gas during processing and service life as well as it shows high pozzolanic reactivity.

Can superabsorbent polymers mitigate shrinkage in cementitious materials blended with supplementary cementitious materials? [PDF]
A promising way to mitigate autogenous shrinkage in cementitious materials with a low water-to-binder ratio is internal curing by the use of superabsorbent polymers. Superabsorbent polymers are able to absorb multiple times their weight in water and can be applied as an internal water reservoir to induce internal curing and mitigation of self ...

Wet-Treated MSWI Fly Ash Used as Supplementary Cementitious Material
Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) is a common technique in treatment of domestic waste. This technique annually produces approximately 25 Mt solid residues (i.e., bottom and fly ash) worldwide which is also a major issue in current research.

Crack mitigation in concrete : superabsorbent polymers as key to success? [PDF]
Cracking is a major concern in building applications. Cracks may arise from shrinkage, freeze/thawing and/or structural stresses, amongst others. Several solutions can be found but superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) seem to be interesting to counteract these

Ladle Furnace Slag as a Partial Cement Substitute in Mortars with Water-Retaining Admixtures [PDF]
Ladle furnace slag (LFS) is a byproduct from steel refining with high calcium oxides and hydroxides contents, making it viable as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM), enhancing microstructure and mechanical properties, particularly in mortars ...
