Ibrahim, Jamal Eldin F.M. (author), Basyooni, Mohamed A. (author), Móricz, Ferenc (author), Kocserha, István (author)The use of waste materials has gained attention as a sustainable approach in various industries. Cigarette waste, which is typically discarded as a non-recyclable material, poses a significant environmental challenge due to its toxicity and slow decomposition rate. However, by incorporating this waste into ceramic bricks, new approaches for...journal article 2024

Shi, Xuyang (author), Chen, Shuzhao (author), Wang, Qiang (author), Lu, Yijun (author), Ren, S. (author), Huang, Jiandong (author)As an environmentally responsible alternative to conventional concrete, geopolymer concrete recycles previously used resources to prepare the cementitious component of the product. The challenging issue with employing geopolymer concrete in the building business is the absence of a standard mix design. According to the chemical composition of...journal article 2024

Diao, Yan (author), Chen, Long (author), Huang, Y. (author)Waste glass (WG), as a nonbiodegradable material, poses a threat to environmental protection. The reuse of WG as a raw material to replace cement or aggregate in concrete production is gaining attention for recycling purposes. However, the optimal proportion of WG in concrete mixtures and its particle size distribution are hard to determine....journal article 2023

FRASSON, Bruna J. (author), CHERIAF, Malik (author), ROCHA, Janaíde C. (author)Addition of Portland cement in low-calcium aluminosilicate-based alkali-activated materials can provide rapid hardening at room temperature, thus modifying microstructure and mechanical properties. In the present study, the effect of Portland cement addition on alkali-activated materials, cured at room temperature, was analysed by mechanical...conference paper 2021

Dong, H. (author), Yao, X. (author), Burgmann, S. (author), Ye, G. (author)Each year a large amount of construction and demolition waste (CDW) is generated in the European Union. For sustainability development the CDW is recycled and re-used. To promote the use of CDW, recycled aggregates from CDW were incorporated in alkali-activated concrete (AAC), which mainly consisted of secondary materials or industrial by...conference paper 2021

Wu, Jiandong (author), Guo, Liping (author)Most of the waste glass, such as flat glass, glass bottle, is buried in the landfill, which is not desirable because it is not biodegradable and is not conducive to the long-term development of the environment. The glass powder (GP) with a certain fineness has excellent pozzolanic effect and can be used as a potential supplementary cementing...conference paper 2021

Chen, B. (author), Sun, Yubo (author), Jacquemin, Loic (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Blom, Kees (author), Lukovic, M. (author), Ye, G. (author)At present, most municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash, as being disposed of as waste, is directly landfilled, raising concern about the environmental issue and potential loss of resources. Given that the natural raw materials used for cement production are being depleted, the recycling of MSWI bottom ash for the application as...conference paper 2019

Zhao, Zengfeng (author), Courard, Luc (author), Michel, Frédéric (author), Remond, Sébastien (author), Damidot, Denis (author)Large amounts of construction and demolition wastes (C&DW) especially concrete wastes are generated annually and will increase in the future. Until now, only a small fraction of concrete wastes is re-used as recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) in the manufacture of concrete. In this paper, the feasibility of using RCA obtained from old concrete...conference paper 2017

Yacoub, A. (author), Djerbi Tegguer, A. (author), Fen-chong, T. (author)This paper investigates the water content of pre-saturated recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) that has a diameter of 1-4 mm called recycled sand (RS), in order to determine the degree of saturation of the RS. It also puts forward the effects of the saturation state of the RS on the mechanical properties. For this matter, experiments were...conference paper 2017

Roodenburg, D. (author), Spronck, J.W. (author), Van der Zant, H.S.J. (author), Venstra, W.J. (author)We have used double clamped beams to implement a mechanical memory. Compressive stress is generated by resistive heating of the beams and beyond the buckling limit the bistable regime is accessed. Bits are written by applying lateral electrostatic forces. The state of the beam is read out by measuring the capacitance between beam and electrodes....journal article 2009
