Abstract:
The production of Portland cement accounts for approximately 7% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Carbon CAPture and CONversion (CAPCON) technology under development by the authors allows for new methods to be developed to offset these emissions. Carbon-negative Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC), produced from CO2 emissions, can be used as a means of offsetting the carbon footprint of cement production while potentially providing benefits to cement hydration, workability, durability and strength. In this paper, we present preliminary test results obtained for the mechanical and chemica

A series of tests were performed by varying the dosages of GS (30%, 40%, and 50%) and CLS (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) for different curing periods (0, 7, and 28 days). This study revealed that the optimal dosages

Abstract:
Nowadays, the reuse of waste products in the construction process is a priority research area. Several industrial and agricultural waste products have been investigated, such as fly ash, sugar cane bagasse ash and rice husk ash. This paper analyzes a very important aspect under intense discussion in the scientific community: the Rice Husk Ash (RHA) grinding process. This paper investigates a low carbon RHA with high pozzolanic reactivity produced under uncontrolled burning conditions. The compressive strength of mortar specimens prepared using both ground and natural RHA were tested for 3-56 d

Sisal is a natural fiber that is renewable, inexpensive, and readily accessible. SSF is a potential reinforcement for use in concrete because of its cheap cost, low density, high specific strength and modulus, negligible health risk, easy accessibility in certain states, and renewability.

Fully utilizing solid waste as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) while ensuring the mechanical properties of cement-based materials is one of the pathways for carbon reduction in the cement industry. Understanding the effects of the two solid wastes-limestone powder (LP) and rice husk ash (RHA) on the mechanical properties of cement-based materials is of great significance for their application in concrete. This study investigates the impact of LP and RHA on the strength of cement mortar at various ages and the microhardness of hardened cement paste. The results suggest that two mate

Material cost and CO2 emissions are among the vital issues related to the sustainability of high-strength concrete. This research proposes a calculation procedure for the mix design of silica fume-blended high-strength concrete with an optimal total cost considering various carbon pricings. First, the material cost and CO2 emission cost are determined using concrete mixture and unit prices. Gene expression programming (GEP) is used to evaluate concrete mechanical and workability properties. Second, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to search the optimal mixture, considering various constraints,

LC3 (limestone calcined clay cement) is poised to become the construction industry’s future as a so-called low-carbon-footprint cement. Research into this subject has determined the minimum kaolinite content in calcined clays to guarantee good mechanical performance. This study examines the use of clay from the Valencian Community (Spain), which has a lower kaolinite content than the recommended amount (around 30%) for use in LC3 and how its performance can be enhanced by replacing part of that clay with metakaolin.

Abstract:
In reinforced concrete (RC) constructions, the beam-column junctions are very sensitive to lateral and vertical loads. In the event of unforeseen earthquake and wind loads, this insufficient joint performance can lead to the failure of the entire structure. Cement industries emit a large amount of greenhouse gases during production, thus contributing to global warming. The nature of cement concrete is fragile. Cement output must be reduced in order to ensure environmental sustainability. Geopolymer concrete (GC), which is a green and low-carbon material, can be used in beam-column joints. M30
