The effect of the presence of zinc on the precipitation of CaCO3 from supersaturated solutions

(Corresponding) Koutsoukos P., NATSI P., MOUSTAKI E.
Topic: 
Heavy metals in the environment
Precipitation and dissolution processes of calcium carbonate in natural aquatic systems, are responsible not only for the regulation of pH but also for the transport of pollutants to and from sediments. Of interest in these processes, is the role of the presence of heavy metals in the aquatic...Read more

A comparative study of alkali activated slag cement concretes with carbonate and silicate activators.

Sanam I., (Corresponding) Mavroulidou M.
Topic: 
Environmental management and policies
Alkali-activated cements are increasingly gaining interest as viable alternatives to Portland cement, because they are considerably reducing CO2 emissions compared to traditional Portland cements while maintaining or exceeding performance requirements commonly specified for construction...Read more

A study of the properties of alkali activated cement concrete with potassium carbonate activator.

(Corresponding) Mavroulidou M.
Topic: 
Net Zero emission transition
Alkali-activated cements (AAC) have recently attracted the vivid interest of the civil engineering industry as promising innovative alternatives to Portland Cement (PC) which is responsible for 8% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. In this context, this paper studies concrete produced using potassium...Read more

Using CO2- induced magnesium carbonate as environmental friendly additives for petroleum decontamination sandy soils

(Corresponding) Abdeh Keykha H., Mavroulidou M., Mohamadzadeh H.
Topic: 
Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation
Chemical pollutants, including petroleum contaminations causes soil pollution due to improper transportation, leakage, or storage. Several methods for soil decontamination have been presented according to the type of soil and their level of pollution. In choosing the appropriate method and...Read more
