(Corresponding) Stevulova N., Junak J., Strigac J., Terpakova E.
Topic:
Solid waste management
This paper is aimed at properties characterization of a designed binder mixture containing cement, fine natural limestone, cement bypass dust (BPD), and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) with an emphasis on a potential utilization of BPD into a normal hardening hydraulic road binder in...Read more
Contribution to low-carbon building industry and improved durability through incorporation of waste into cement composites
Estokova A., (Corresponding) Figmig R., (Corresponding) Singovszka E.
Topic:
Solid waste management
By using mineral waste in the production of cement composites, it is possible not only to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and carbon footprint, but by adding secondary waste such as fly ash, silica fume or slag, some properties of the resulting composites are also improved. The waste mentioned are...Read more
