Industrial wastes such as marble dust, fly ash, and red mud have progressed as an environmental hazard that needs to be disposed or utilized for minimizing the ecological pollution problems and manufacturing costs. Over the years, there is an increasing interest among researchers in utilizing these industrial wastes as reinforcement for developing economic and lightweight monolithic or hybrid composites. In the same context, this paper presents a comprehensive review on the aspects of tribology and thermal performance of industrial waste such as marble dust, fly ash, and red mud as reinforcement for different monolithic and hybrid composites. The review also describes different applications for industrial waste material reinforced composites. Finally, the paper concludes with authors’ perspective of the review, conclusion summary, and future potential of industrial waste filled composites in different industries for obtaining a sustainable and cleaner environment.

Fly ash is the most common solid waste in the industry, and its high value-added utilization has become a hot issue of study. Carrying out the green synthesis route of zeolite as the raw material of fly ash has become an extremely important scientific significance and practical value. In this paper, the research progress of fly ash-based zeolite was introduced from three aspects, including fly ash activation method, fly ash-based zeolite synthesis method and fly ash-based zeolite in the wastewater treatment sector. The relevant applications of fly ash-based zeolite as an adsorbent material in the treatment of wastewater pollution were summarized, and the development trend has prospected.

In this paper, imitation basalt compounds using red mud, fly ash or coal gangue as raw materials were designed and prepared with the help of thermodynamic calculations. Thermodynamic calculations were used to obtain the suitable chemical composition. Then, the imitation compounds were prepared and their phase/compositions were analyzed. Finally, their high-temperature melting performance and crystallization ability were evaluated. The results show that the characteristic temperature and crystallization ability of the imitation basalt compounds were similar to those of basalt. Moreover, the viscosity of red mud imitation basalt compound approached the viscosity of basalt with the increase in temperature. This work suggests that red mud, fly ash and coal gangue can be mixed with quartz and other source materials to produce imitation basalt fiber. Therefore, thermodynamic calculation is an effective method to design and prepare high-performance imitation basalt compounds.

Aluminosilicate gels form geopolymers and nanocrystalline zeolites which have comparable strength properties, making them a potential replacement for ordinary Portland cement. The study explores the use of two untreated industrial wastes, Class-F fly ash and red mud, for synthesizing geopolymeric material at ambient synthesis conditions. The high alkalinity present in the red mud was exploited for the dissolution of silica in the fly ash and red mud. The mechanical, mineralogical, microstructural, and pore characteristics were analyzed and the contributions of curing period, Si/Al, Na/Al, and liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratios on the compressive strength of the end products were also investigated. The alkalinity of the system due to the red mud was adequate for the dissolution of raw fly ash and the subsequent formation of aluminosilicate gels. The strength of the end product was directly proportional to the initial Si/Al ratio and the specimens with highest fly ash content exhibited highest compressive strength values after 28 days of curing. Furthermore, fly ash contributed to the formation and distribution of interstitial and capillary pores in the aluminosilicate matrix. The lowest L/S ratio of the initial mix resulted in the end product with the highest unconfined compressive strength.

AbstractThe behavior of cement-based materials is manipulated by chemical and physical processes at the nanolevel. Therefore, the application of nanomaterials in civil engineering to develop nano-modified cement-based materials is a promising research. In recent decades, a large number of researchers have tried to improve the properties of cement-based materials by employing various nanomaterials and to characterize the mechanism of nano-strengthening. In this study, the state of the art progress of nano-modified cement-based materials is systematically reviewed and summarized. First, this study reviews the basic properties and dispersion methods of nanomaterials commonly used in cement-based materials, including carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, graphene, graphene oxide, nano-silica, nano-calcium carbonate, nano-calcium silicate hydrate, etc. Then the research progress on nano-engineered cementitious composites is reviewed from the view of accelerating cement hydration, reinforcing mechanical properties, and improving durability. In addition, the market and applications of nanomaterials for cement-based materials are briefly discussed, and the cost is creatively summarized through market survey. Finally, this study also summarizes the existing problems in current research and provides future perspectives accordingly.
