DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE, ALKALI-ACTIVATED BINDERS FOR CONSTRUCTION
Alelweet, Omar (Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2023)This work contributes to the design and production of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) of lower environmental impact than Portland cement (PC) products. AAM binders result from the reaction of an activator and a precursor. ... -
An evaluation of the feasibility of industrial wastes and natural materials, as precursors, for the production of alkali activated materials (AAMs)
Pavia, Sara; Alelweet, Omar (2019)In order to face current compelling environmental problems affecting the planet, the construction industry needs to adapt. It is widely acknowledged that there is a need for durable, highperformance, low-greenhouse gas ... -
An Evaluation of the Feasibility of Several Industrial Wastes and Natural Materials, as Precursors, for the Production of Alkali Activated Materials
Pavia, Sara; Alelweet, Omar (2019)In order to face current compelling environmental problems affecting the planet, the construction industry needs to adapt. It is widely acknowledged that there is a need for durable, high-performance, low-greenhouse gas ... -
Long-Term Durability and Mechanical Performance of Alkali-Activated, Slag Cements
Pavia, Sara; Alelweet, Omar (2021)Alkali activated (AA) cements are considered less harmful to the environment than Portland cements (PC), as they consist of a silicate waste in lieu of a PC clinker, and this implies lower green-house gas emissions and ... -
Pozzolanic and Cementing Activity of Raw and Pyro-Processed Saudi Arabian Red Mud (RM) Waste
Pavia, Sara; Alelweet, Omar; Lei, Zehao (2021)This paper investigates the composition, properties and reactivity of a red mud waste generated in Saudi Arabia with a view to find alternative materials to replace construction binders of high environmental impact. The ...
