Sustainable Valorisation of Silane-Treated Waste Glass Powder in Concrete Pavement [PDF]
This research presents new insights into the utilisation of waste glass powder in concrete pavements. Two different types of glass powder were used as a partial replacement for sand: 10% neat glass powder (untreated) and 10% silane-treated glass powder.

Mechanochemical Activation of Waste Clay Brick Powder with Addition of Waste Glass Powder and Its Influence on Pozzolanic Reactivity. [PDF]
The availability of industrially used supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs, e.g., fly ash) decreases due to the rise in renewable energy sources and recycling technologies. Therefore, it is essential to find alternative SCMs (e.g., waste glass and clay brick powder) that are locally available.

Waste Glass Powder as Cement Replacement in Concrete
The pozzolanic reactivity of waste glass powder was experimentally studied at cement replacement levels of 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60% by weight. Results revealed that the concrete compressive strength was not decreased by the cement substitution after 28 days because of the pozzolanic reaction between glass powders and cement hydration products, if the ...
