<strong><strong>&nbsp;</strong>In order to address environmental effects associated with two environmental situations are of concern,firstl y the production of 1 ton of cement directly contributes 1 ton of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere,secondary is fly ash the waste product from coal based thermal power plants and Ground granulated blast furnace slag which is the last residue in the manufa cture of iron. For both these material disposal is a serious concern as the agricultural lands are becoming draw back. An effort in this regard is the development of concrete,synthesized from the materials of geological origin or by product material such as fly ash and Ground granulated blast furnace slag which are rich in silicon,aluminum,ferrous oxide,calcium oxide magnesium oxide in certain percentages which develop the cementious property when used as cement replacement material.

Abstract:
Geopolymer materials are known as sustainable and environmental material. The main constituents of geopolymer material are alumina and silicon, which can be activated in an alkaline environment. In this paper, the reaction of alumino-silicate materials in the alkaline agent is investigated on geopolymer non-autoclaved aerated concrete (GNAAC). The main constituents of GNAAC are fly ash (FA), blast furnace slag (BSF), lime, gypsum, aluminium powder, and alkaline solution. In the mix proportions, FA and BSF are used to replace crushed sand and cement. The results indicate that the GNAAC can be produced similarly as traditional autoclaved aerated concrete. Besides, the flow diameter of the mixture using blast furnace slag is lower than that of fly ash. The temperature and expansion ability decrease with an increase in FA/BFS – Lime and alkaline content. Furthermore, the compressive strength of GNAAC can be determined by synthesizing geopolymer without steam and pressure curing conditions.

Abstract This study aimed to assess the physicochemical properties of a repair material in the Brazilian market, BioMTA, in comparison to other two materials currently in use (Biodentine and MTA Angelus). The initial setting time was evaluated using Gillmore needle. The pH was measured with a pH-meter after 24 h, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days. The radiopacity was determined using the equivalence in millimeters of aluminum (mm Al) from digitized occlusal radiographs. Solubility was determined after immersion in water for 7 days. The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (a=0.05). The BioMTA initial setting time (5.2 min) was lower than the other materials (p&lt;0.05). All materials showed an alkaline pH at 21 days. At 24 h, BioMTA was the most alkaline material (p&lt;0.05); and at 3, 7, 14 and 21 days there was no difference between BioMTA and Biodentine (p&gt;0.05), both being more alkaline than MTA Angelus (p&lt;0.05). The radiopacity of BioMTA (4.2 mm Al) was significantly higher compared to Biodentine (p&lt;0.05) and lower than MTA Angelus (p&lt;0.05). The solubility of the materials was -4.2%, -1.6% and 4.1% for BioMTA, MTA Angelus and Biodentine, respectively, with a significant difference between them (p&lt;0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that BioMTA displayed a shorter setting time, an alkaline pH, a higher radiopacity, and a gain in mass.

Abstract:
The influence of 4% acetic acid (pH~2.4) and an alkaline solution of NaOH (pH~10) on the corrosion resistance and micromechanical properties of disilicate crystals containing glass-ceramics (LS2-GC’s) is studied. Partially crystallized lithium metasilicate crystal containing glass-ceramics (LS-GC’s) are annealed to fully LS2-GC’s using a one stage and a two-stage heating to induce nucleation. Materials with various chemical and wear resistance are prepared. The content of the crystalline phase in the material annealed in the two-stage process A is 60.0% and increases to 72.2% for the material heated in the one-stage process B. The main elements leached in the acidic medium are lithium and phosphorus, while lithium, silicon, and phosphorus leached into the alkaline environment. Material B exhibits better chemical resistance to the corrosive influence of 4% acetic acid under quasi-dynamic conditions. In the alkaline corrosion medium, silicon is leached from material A faster compared to the material B. After prolonged exposure to acidic or basic environments, both materials show evidence of surface structural changes. A decrease of the sliding wear resistance is observed after corrosion in the acidic environment under dynamic conditions. In both materials, the wear rate increases after corrosion.

<em>The object of the research is the process of directed structure formation in the body of alkaline concrete, made using a reactive aggregate, in this case, basalt, and the process of deformation development in such concrete.

Abstract:
In the production of rice a large amount of solid residue is produced, for which alternative utilizations are scarce or are not commonly applied in industry. Rice straw (RS) is a waste product of rice harvest that is generated in equal or greater quantities than the rice itself. RS is frequently burned in open air, which makes it a significant source of pollution. In the search for possible uses of RS, it should be noted that its ash (RSA) is particularly rich in silica, alkaline and alkaline earth metals and may be used as a source of alkalis and silica for the production of triaxial ceramics. The present research work proposes the production of a ceramic raw material from RS for its use in the fabrication of ceramic materials for the construction industry. Based on the chemical and mineralogical composition of RSA created under different thermal conditions, the most suitable RSA for this purpose was that obtained from treating RS at a temperature of 800 ºC for a time of 2 h. The resulting RSA presented high contents of SiO2 (79.62%), alkaline oxides (K2O) (10.53%) and alkaline earth oxides (CaO) (2.80%). It is concluded that RSA is a new alternative ceramic raw material that can be used as a replacement for the fluxing (mainly feldspar) and inert (quartz) materials that are used in the production of triaxial ceramics.

Abstract:
Mineral geopolymer binders can be an attractive and more sustainable alternative to traditional Portland cement materials for special applications. In geopolymer technology the precursor is a source of silicon and aluminium oxides, the second component is an alkaline solution. In the synthesis of geopolymer binders the most commonly used alkaline solution is a mixture of sodium or potassium water glass with sodium or potassium hydroxide or silicate solution with a low molar ratio, which is more convenient and much safer in use. In this paper, we present the influence of sodium or potassium silicate solution on the physical and mechanical properties of fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag-based geopolymer mortars. Mercury intrusion porosimetry and microstructural observation allowed for comparing the structure of materials with a different type of alkaline solution. The evolution of compressive and flexural tensile strength with time determined for composites using 10%, 30% and 50% slag contents (referring to fly ash mass) was analysed. The tests were performed after 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. It was observed that, as the amount of slag used increases in the precursor, the strength of the material grows. Mortars with the sodium alkaline solution were characterised by a higher strength at a young age. However, the values of strength 28 days were higher for geopolymers with potassium alkaline solution reaching 75 MPa in compression. Geopolymer mortar microstructure observation indicates a high matrix heterogeneity with numerous microcracks. Matrix defects may be caused by the rapid kinetics of the material binding reaction or shrinkage associated with the drying of the material.

Abstract:
This study investigates the disposal of lateritic soil available in the state of Maranhao, Brazil, to be used as a natural precursor of alkaline activated material. Lateritic soils are formed in the tropics through weathering processes that favour the formation of iron, aluminium and may contain a large amount of quartz and kaolinite. The quality of laterite for this application may vary significantly depending on both geographic location and depth of a quarry. The identification of quarry locals was carried out in this work, together with a disposal volume estimation considering economic issues about exploration techniques. A comparison of the chemical composition of the lateritic soil of the state of Maranhao with those related in the literature is used to outline the feasibility of using this natural material as precursor of alkaline activated cements. It is concluded that the lateritic soil availability, as well as their characteristics, can enable the development of alkaline activated materials as a future local building material and environmentally friendly.

Abstract:
The paper discusses the questions of alkalinity changes in alkali activated cement-based materials at different stages of hardening. It was shown that use of alkali activated cement with dry alkaline component (“all-in-one system”) in the presence of basalt rock leads to the immediate decrease of pH value and strength drop of the material. On the other hand, using alkaline component in the form of alkaline solution provides almost normal hardening of systems. Taking into account obtained results a methodology of changes in concrete mix design was proposed. In general, for different cement systems under study pH value varies from 8.5 to 12 reflecting on the materials structure formation processes and strength gain. Shrinkage of the systems was within the ranges 0.3…0.6 mm/m at 28 days age and 0.3…0.5 mm/m for different systems. Absence of expansion witnesses about compensation of ASR results and normal structure developments processes in the material comparing to OPC.

Therefore, this study uses slag and red mud (RM) as the main raw materials, sodium silicate, and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as the composite alkaline activators, the slag-based cementitious materials were prepared by the secondary mixed grinding method. The mechanical properties of the cementitious materials were characterized and analyzed. The results show that when the ratio of slag to RM in the cementing material is 8:2, the strength increases initially and then decreases with the increase of the content of the alkaline activator. Meanwhile, the content of the alkaline activator is 10% (mass fraction), and the 28-day compressive strength of the sample is up to 67.8MPa, which meets the requirements of slag cement with a 42.5 strength grade.

The abrasion resistance of concrete is best when the content of alkaline residue is 10% of cement material, combined with SEM image analysis, the microstructure of concrete that alkaline residue accounted for cement material 10% is more dense than others proportions concrete, and the abrasion resistance of concrete will decrease with the increasing the amount of alkaline residue. The experiment also observed the abrasion resistance of the different curing period of the alkaline residue admixture concrete. We could find that the abrasion resistance of concrete increases with the growth of curing age.

The microstructure changes of acrylate spray-on waterproof material in alkaline groundwater environment were tentatively studied with X-ray microscopy (XRM), and the validity of deciding the failure of the material was explored in paper. Regarded NaOH solution with pH=12 as corrosive medium, after the immersion in the alkaline solution, spray-on waterproof material was scanned with XRM, and the structure was characterized with some indexes such as porosity and pore connectivity. The results show that when the waterproof material is immersed in alkaline solution for some time, the surface of the material becomes uneven, the overall porosity falls and the pore connectivity rises. It is feasible to study on the failure of waterproof material in underground engineering with XRM.

Abstract:
This study focused on manufacturing efficient automobile sound-absorbing materials through alkaline treatment and dimple processing of recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) nonwoven fabric. The rPET nonwoven fabric was produced with a sound-absorbing material through compression molding. It was improved through the development of porous sound-absorbing materials through alkaline treatment and resonant sound-absorbing materials through dimple processing. As a result of morphological analysis, alkaline treatment showed that pore size and air permeability increased according to temperature and concentration increase conditions. On the other hand, dimple processing caused a decrease in air permeability and a decrease in pores due to yarn fusion, and as the dimple diameter increased, the sound-absorbing coefficient increased in the 5000 Hz band. Finally, it was judged that effective sound absorption performance would be improved through a simple process through alkaline treatment and dimple processing, and thus there would be applicability in various industrial fields.

Abstract:
Traditional natural materials (mainly granite and quartz) are usually used as aggregates for the manufacture of concrete products and structures. This raw material is tested, reliable and does not cause destruction during operation of structures. However, it is exhaustive and characterized by high cost. That is why it is advisable to consider the use of reactive (active) aggregates. Especially if you consider ways to eliminate alkaline corrosion. The development of alkaline concrete compositions with the use of active aggregates is the key to expanding the raw material base for the manufacture of building materials with a reduction in production costs compared to products based on traditional systems. The use of active mineral additives allows to reduce the content of free alkalis in the system, preventing the alkaline corrosion of hardened artificial stone. Simultaneously. the processes of interaction of the active siliceous component with alkalis in the cement system can be transferred from the category of destructive (such as destroying the structure of hardened stone) in constructive processes (binding these components into insoluble compounds during hydration and cement formation, without breaking its fixed structure and sealing material). Studies have shown the high efficiency of the proposed approaches for the binding of excess alkalis (more than 0.6%) and targeted synthesis of alkaline aluminosilicate-type tumors in the composition of artificial cement stone. At the same time, the issue of extending the results to control the formation of structures at different levels of concrete with the use of general construction cements requires further research, and the issue of stopping alkaline corrosion of hardened concrete has not been raised and is innovative from the point of view of domestic and world science.

Abstract:
The properties of alkaline kaolins as promising raw materials during manufacturing engobe coatings for construction ceramics were studied. The chemical and mineralogical composition and peculiarities of thermal transformations of kaolins were determined; the compositions of engobe coatings were developed, their rheological properties were studied and physical and ceramic indicators after annealing were determined; the peculiarities of the formation of the coating structure were established. The relevance of expansion of the raw material base is very high, since existing formulations of ceramic masses and coatings include mainly high-quality clays, kaolins, feldspars, quartz sands and others. Natural supplies of such raw materials are getting rapidly exhausted, which negatively affects the results of production. Thus, the search for alternative raw materials should take into account not only its availability, but also the ability to ensure high quality of ceramic products. The research results revealed that alkaline kaolins are complex raw material containing kaolinite, quartz and feldspar minerals (microcline or albite), that is why they can replace the listed materials that are introduced into the composition of engobes by separate components. To correct the rheological properties of the developed engobe coatings, it is possible to use traditional electrolytes &ndash; rheotan and liquid glass &ndash; in the amount of up to 0.7&nbsp;% by weight. During the thermal treatment, alkaline kaolins sinter actively at the temperatures of 1,100&ndash;1,150&nbsp;&deg;C and contribute to the intensive formation of the strong stone-like engobe layer with water absorption of 3&ndash;6&nbsp;% on the product surface. This coating, in addition to creating a decorative effect, increases the durability of construction products on average by 30&ndash;35&nbsp;%. The obtained data have both scientific and practical significance, as they allowed substantiating the expediency of using alkaline kaolins as complex raw material in the production of engobe ceramics. This makes it possible to reduce the number of separate components in the composition of coating and to intensify sintering of engobe, which generally leads to the improvement of product quality

To avoid the disadvantages that come from the cement industry, one strategy could be to use alternative materials as substitutes for cement-based materials. In plus these materials can be obtaining from by products, secondary sources of silicates and aluminates. In the present study, a characterization of the materials obtained following the activation of some aluminosilicate wastes with an&nbsp;alkaline mixture consisting of KOH and Na2SiO3 in different mass ratios will be carried out. KOH solutions had molarities between 5-10 M. The tests that were carried out are: workability of the fresh material, density of the hardened material, mechanical properties, capillarity absorption and resistance in the acid, alkaline and salts environments. The results allow the best conditions to be established in order to manufacture suitable materials with the proper characteristics.

Abstract:
The alkaline activation of aluminosilicates materials has been motivated by their enhanced thermomechanical properties. Despite the majority of studies comprise the evaluation industrial byproduct of precursors (fly ash and slag), metakaolin (Al2O3.2SiO2) is acknowledged to have structure and chemical composition characteristics that make it very reactive as far as alkaline activation is concerned. In tropical regions of the earth, as is the case in northeastern Brazil, there are some waste (kaolin waste, red brick waste and weathered tropical soils) whose alkaline activation potential have not yet been fully studied. These sources are known to have other metals such as iron in its structure, which might affect the alkaline activation. This paper aims to evaluate the potential of alkaline activation of these wastes. Chemical and structural characterization were performed by means of x-ray fluorescence, x-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and compressive strength. The results indicate that all studied waste presented significant potential as precursor material for alkaline activation.

Abstract:
Climate change due to carbon dioxide (CO2) emission is a serious concern in modern society. Cement manufacturing industry world-wide currently contributes approximately 8 % of global CO2 emissions, and this is a serious obstacle for the sustainable development of the cement manufacturing industry. Alkaline-activated cement (AAC) has been proven to be one of alternative cementitious materials which has less disturbance to the environment and can be used as construction materials. However, typical alkaline-activated cement is generally manufactured by mixing raw material with alkaline solutions. It was found that the preparation process of solutions and transportation to construction sites could raise some difficulties in real use. To eliminate the use of the alkaline activator in liquid form and simplify the mixing processes, the development of Just-Adding-Water (JAW) technique was introduced in this research. The results revealed that the alkaline-activated cement manufactured using the pre-dry mix process achieved a 28-day compressive strength very similar to that of typical alkaline-solution mixture in non-oven curing condition. In the pre-dry mixing process, the amount of required water may be slightly higher than that of normal alkaline-solution mixture in order to compensate insufficient water in both mixes and moisture loss during exothermic reaction as well as maintain the workability.

Abstract:
One-part geopolymer concrete/mortar is a pre-mixed material made from industrial by-products and solid alkaline activators that only requires the addition of water for activation. Apart from being environmentally friendly, it also reduces complexity and improves consistency in the mixing process, leading to more efficient production and consistent material properties. However, developing one-part geopolymer concrete with desirable compressive strength is challenging because of the complexity of the chemical reaction involved, the variability of the raw materials used, and the need for precise control of curing conditions. Therefore, 80 different one-part geopolymer mixtures were compiled from the open literature in this study, and the effects of the constituent materials, the dosage of alkaline activators, curing condition, and water/binder ratio on the 28-day compressive strength of one-part geopolymer paste were examined in detail. An ANN model with the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm was developed to estimate one-part geopolymer’s compressive strength and its sensitivity to binder constituents and alkaline dosage. The ANN model’s weights and biases were also used to develop a CPLEX-based optimization method for achieving maximum compressive strength. The results confirm that the compressive strength of one-part geopolymer pastes increased by increasing the Na2O content of the alkaline source and the slag dosage; however, increasing the Na2O content in alkaline sources beyond 6% by fly ash weight led to decreasing the compressive strength; therefore, the optimum alkaline activator dosage by weight of fly ash was to be 12% (i.e., 6% Na2O). The proposed ANN model developed in this study can aid in the production and performance tuning of sustainable one-part geopolymer concrete and mortar for broader full-scale applications.

Abstract:
The problem of engineering materials failing in structures like bridges, pipelines, refinery and automobile equipments is becoming a source of concern to the people of the developing nations especially Nigerians. This sometimes might be attributed to the environments in which the materials are being used or stored and the source of the materials. There is a need therefore, to evaluate the effects of these environments on the final property, especially the mechanical properties of the materials. Based on the peculiarity of ductile iron (DI) having its application in most engineering works in different environments, the material was subjected to four different environments namely alkaline (NaOH), brackish (NaCl), air conditioning (A/C), and outside environment, coinciding with the environments of application. The material was later subjected to series of mechanical tests and the behavioural changes (especially the mechanical property) of the materials in these environments were monitored for the period. It was observed that the ductile iron placed outside had the highest elastic properties and hardness of 1341.72Hv while alkaline environment had the highest strength of 3321.75MPa. The alkaline environment gives the highest performance as it had a quality index of 4,038,837, followed by outside environment while salty environment had the least.

Abstract:
The development of high-performance materials, which are characterized by high compressive and flexural strength, durability and performance properties, is an urgent problem of modern construction. Engineered cementitious composites are one such material. Improving of properties of composites is achieved by partial replacement of cement with supplementary cementitious materials. The ratio of binder and filler components and superplasticizer consumption were selected. The optimal ratio of cement:fly ash:sand is 1:1:1 and the dosage of polycarboxylate superplasticizer is 0.75% by weight of the binder. The reduction of the negative impact of the increased amount of fly ash, which is characterized by low reactivity, is provided by the introduction of metakaolin and alkaline hardening activator. Alkaline activated cement system is characterized by increasing of the early strength in 1.5 times comparison with equivalent mixture without alkaline activator. Strength of alkaline activated cementing matrix after 28 days is 66.1 MPa and specific strength Rc2/Rc28 is 0.61.

Abstract:
Abstract The chemistry of chemithermomechanical pulping (CTMP) was assessed by chemical pre-treatment of spruce chips, followed by laboratory-scale refining. Pre-treatments with alkali, sulfite, alkaline sulfite and alkaline peroxide liquors were carried out at 40°C, 60°C and 80°C. The sodium hydroxide dosages were 1% and 2% and the sodium sulfite and hydrogen peroxide dosages were 2%, 4% and 6% on a dry wood basis. Process water samples were taken before and after refining. Alkali consumption in the pre-treatments and the amount and composition of released wood components were determined. A major part of the alkali was consumed in the alkaline and alkaline sulfite pre-treatments. In the alkaline peroxide pre-treatments, however, alkali consumption was considerably lower. Acetic acid was the main wood component released to the process waters in alkaline pre-treatments. Pectins, determined as galacturonic acid and rhamnose by acid methanolysis, were also released to some extent, as well as easily soluble polysaccharides. After fibre separation in refining, more hemicelluloses and pectins were released. There was a significant difference between the degree of demethylation for pectins and the degree of deacetylation for galactoglucomannans after the pre-treatments. The diffusion of chemicals into the secondary wall layers seemed to be slower than the liquor penetration into the porous middle lamella through the pit pores. Up to 10% of the pectins were dissolved in the process waters as a result of depolymerisation and extensive demethylation. The residual amount of pectins in the fibres, however, was determined to be as low as 65–70% of the initial pectin content.

Various types of waste materials containing zinc (e.g. dusts and sludges from gas dedusting process) are obtained in steel industry. The contents of Zn in these materials may vary considerably. Even a low concentration of zinc in recirculated products precludes their recycling in ferrous metallurgy aggregates. Long storage of this type of material can lead to contamination of soil and water by zinc compounds which can be leached out by acid rain, for example. This paper focuses on research involving alkaline leaching tests of low zinc content iron-bearing materials. These tests were preceded by the analysis of the elemental, phase and grain size composition, and analysis of the thermodynamic conditions of the leaching process. The main aim of research was to decrease the content of the zinc in the sludge to the level where it is suitable as an iron-bearing material for iron production (~1% Zn). Leaching at elevated temperatures (368 K, 60 min) has led to a decrease in the zinc content in the sludge of about 66%. The research revealed that long hour leaching (298 K, 100 hours) carried out at ambient temperatures caused a reduction in zinc content by 60% to the value of 1.15-1.2% Zn.

Abstract:
<strong>Abstract </strong>Alkali-activated gelling material is a kind of gelling material that can stimulate the activity of precursors in an alkaline or strong alkali environment, so that it can maintain and develop properties. At present, the two most widely used alkali-activated gelling materials in the world The materials are high-calcium-alkaliactivated cementitious material system and low-calcium-alkali-activated cementitious material system, the former is mainly represented by granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), and the latter is mainly represented by fly ash (FA). For the precursor to obtain an alkaline environment, an activator needs to be added. Alkali-excited materials do not require calcination in the preparation process, which enables them to save more resources than traditional cement materials, and alkali-excited cementitious materials have the characteristics of fast setting, early strength, and high temperature resistance. These characteristics make it better used in some special occasions, such as its fast setting and early strength characteristics can be well used in engineering repairs, etc., but these characteristics also limit its application in a wider range, so at present The main research direction in the world is how to make the alkali-excited materials have a larger application space. This paper briefly summarizes the research status and application prospects of alkali-excited gelling materials in improving fast setting and early strength.
