Geopolymer (GP) has been applied as an environmentally-friendly construction material in recent years. Many pozzolanic wastes, such as fly ash (FA) and bottom ash, are commonly used as source materials for synthesizing geopolymer. Nonetheless, many non-pozzolanic wastes are often applied in the field of civil engineering, including waste iron powder (WIP). WIPs are massively produced as by-products from iron and steel industries, and the production rate increases every year. As an iron-based material, WIP has properties of heat induction and restoration, which can enhance the heat curing process of GP. Therefore, this study aimed to utilize WIP in high-calcium FA geopolymer to develop a new type of geopolymer and examine its properties compared to the conventional geopolymer. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were performed on the geopolymers. Mechanical properties, including compressive strength and flexural strength, were also determined. In addition, setting time and temperature monitoring during the heat curing process were carried out. The results indicated that the addition of WIP in FA geopolymer decreased the compressive strength, owing to the formation of tetrahydroxoferrate (II) sodium or Na2[Fe(OH)4]. However, a significant increase in the flexural strength of GP with WIP addition was detected. A flexural strength of 8.5 MPa was achieved by a 28-day sample with 20% of WIP addition, nearly three times higher than that of control.


This research work presents the overview of geopolymer mortar application into the ferro cement panel with the incorporation of crumb rubber and Nano fly ash. The geopolymer mortar is prepared by using industrial wastes as a base material such as fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) which generally helps to reduce the level of CO2 emission. Also, the recycled tyre crumb rubber is utilized as a sustainable innovative construction material which is used a partial substitution for sand upto 5% for enhancing the ductility without any strength degradation. These reduces land fill problems and ground water quality degradation problems. Crumb rubber has the ideal capacity to absorb energy from static and other kind of loads. The geopolymer binder preparation is done by utilizing material such as fly ash, GGBFS, alkaline liquid made of NaOH and Na2SiO3 , Nano fly ash. The Nano fly ash is used as an additive which helps in increasing the strength and durability of the element by its pore filling capability. This project aims to enhance the strength of fly ash based geopolymer mortar with the help of GGBFS incorporation. The molarity of alkaline activator, solution to binder ratio and silicate to hydroxide ratio is fixed as 12, 0.4 and 1.5 throughout the process. The mortar cubes and panels were heat cured under hot air oven at 80ᵒ C for 48 hours. The mechanical behavior of geopolymer mortar is assessed by compressive strength test water absorption test. The panel is made of high strength geopolymer mortar and expanded metal mesh with chicken mesh for obtaining higher energy absorption capacity with good deforming ability and less crack pronouncement. The investigation involves finding the initial crack load, ultimate failure load and residual flexural strength ratio. The results show that the tyre inclusion enhances the flexural strength of the ferro geopolymer panel by means of its ductile enhancing capacity

Concrete is one of the most common construction materials used for road pavement. In pavement concrete roads are required to have good flexural strength, providing sufficient comfort for drivers and durability. To answer the demands, it is necessary to conduct research and experiment, one of the ways is by using added materials (admixture). This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of fly ash, plastic dodol, mille scale and superplasticizer to the flexural strength of concrete. Concrete is planned with fc 29.05 or K-350 with fly ash as much as 10% of cement weight, plastic waste dodol waste 0.15%, 0.25% and 0.35% of sand weight, 5% mill scale of weight of sand and superplasticizer as much as 2% of the water weight. Testing sample at age 7, 14, 28 days, to know compressive strength and flexural strength by converting from result of tensile strength of concrete and absorption.

Abstract: In Twenty First century infrastructure development concrete has come out as the dominant construction material due to its longevity and strength. The main component used in the concrete preparation is ordinary Portland cement whose production release large amount of carbon dioxide into atmosphere that causes greenhouse effects. Various surveys suggest industries around the globe contribute about 6%of carbon dioxide that is releasing into the atmosphere. In spite of this major environmental concern, we cannot reduce the use of ordinary Portland cement for making concrete. In this study concrete is prepared by using geopolymer technology i.e. by mixing fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, sodium silicates, sodium hydroxide are mixed. Specimen curing is done at regular intervals of 3 days, 7days, and 28days. Compressive, split and flexural strength obtained after 3 days, 7 days and 28 days. Acid, Sulphate test and permeability test done for 14 and 28 days of curing the specimen. More strength occurred at mix 5 of fly ash 30% and GGBS 70%. Keywords: fly ash, GGBS, compression strength, split tensile, acid attack, flexural strength.

The use of fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) by-products as aluminosilicate precursors in geopolymer binders has attracted significant interest from researchers in recent years owing to their high alumina and silica contents. Introduced in this study is the use of geopolymer concrete comprising FCC residue combined with fly ash as the requisite source of aluminosilicate. Fly ash was replaced with various FCC residue contents ranging from 0–100% by mass of binder. Results from standard testing methods showed that geopolymer concrete rheological properties such as yield stress and plastic viscosity as well as mechanical properties including compressive strength, flexural strength, and elastic modulus were affected significantly by the FCC residue content. With alkali liquid to geopolymer solid ratios (AL:GS) of 0.4 and 0.5, a reduction in compressive and flexural strength was observed in the case of geopolymer concrete with increasing FCC residue content. On the contrary, geopolymer concrete with increasing FCC residue content exhibited improved strength with an AL:GS ratio of 0.65. Relationships enabling estimation of geopolymer elastic modulus based on compressive strength were investigated. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed that the final product from the geopolymerization process consisting of FCC residue was similar to fly ash-based geopolymer concrete. These observations highlight the potential of FCC residue as an aluminosilicate source for geopolymer products.

This research studies the potential for using waste ash from industrial and agricultural by-products as a pozzolanic material. Classified fly ash (FA) and ground rice husk ash (RA) were the materials used. Water requirement, compressive strength and porosity of cement mortar were investigated. Test results indicated that FA and RA (waste ash) have a high potential to be used as a good pozzolanic material. The water requirement of mortar mix decreases with the increases in fly ash content. For ground rice husk ash (RA), the water requirement of mortar mix increases with the increases in rice husk ash content. In addition, the reduction in porosity was associated with the increase in compressive strength.
