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.

In this study, the mixing of polystyrene (PS) beads and fly ash as a sand replacement material in foamed cement composites (FCC) has been investigated. Specifically, the mechanical properties such as compressive strength and flexural strength were measured. Different proportions of fly ash were added in cement composites to replace the sand proportion at 3 wt. %, 6 wt. %, 9 wt. % and 12 wt. % respectively. The water to cement ratio was fixed at 0.65 meanwhile ratios of PS beads used was 0.25 volume percent of samples as a foaming agent. All samples at different mixed were cured at 7 and 28 days respectively. Based on the results of compressive strength, it was found that the compressive strength was increased with the increasing addition of fly ash. Meanwhile, flexural strength was decreased with the increasing addition of fly ash up to 9 wt. %. The foamed cement composites with 12 wt. % of fly ash produced the highest strength of compressive strength meanwhile 3 wt. % of fly ash produced the highest strength of flexural strength.

This paper reports an investigation on mechanical properties of high volume fly ash (HVFA) concrete produced using different types of mixing water i.e. tap water and saturated lime water. The mechanical properties of ordinary Portland cement concrete are also investigated as control tests. The concrete were tested for their compressive strength, flexural strength and splitting tensile strength at the curing ages of 56 days. The results showed that strength development of high volume fly ash concrete up to 56 days is lower than ordinary portal cement. In addition, the flexural strength and splitting strength of concrete are lower than ordinary Portland cement. Moreover, the use of saturated lime water as mixing water reduces the mechanical properties of class C high volume fly ash concrete.

This research investigates the physical and mechanical properties of mortar incorporating fly ash (FA), which is by-product of Duyen Hai thermal power plant. Six mixtures of mortar are produced with FA at level of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% (by volume) as cement replacement and at water-to-binder (W/B) of 0.5. The flow, density, compressive strength, flexural strength, and water absorption tests are made under relevant standard in this study. The results have shown that the higher FA content increases the flow of mortar but significantly decreases the density of mixtures. The water absorption and setting time increases as the samples incorporating FA. Compressive strength of specimen with 10% FA is approximately equal to control specimen at the 91-day age. The flexural strength of specimen ranges from 7.97 MPa to 8.94 MPa at the 91-day age with the best result for samples containing 10% and 20% FA.

Activated Slag (AAS) and Fly Ash (FA) based geopolymer concrete a new blended alkali-activated concrete that has been progressively studied over the past years because of its environmental benefits superior engineering properties. Geopolymer has many favorable characteristics in comparison to Ordinary Portland Cement. Many base materials could be utilized to make geopolymer with the convenient concentration of activator solution. In this study, the experimental program composed of two phases; phase on divided into four groups; Group one deliberated the effect of sodium hydroxide molarity and different curing condition on compressive strength. Group two studied the effect of alkali activated solution (NaOH and Na2SiO3) content on compressive strength and workability. The effect of sand replacement with slag on compressive strength and workability was explained in group three. Group four studied the effect of slag replacement with several base materials Fly Ash (FA), Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), pulverized Red Brick (PRB), and Meta Kaolin (MK). Phase two contains three mixtures from phase one which had the highest compressive strength. For each mixture, the fresh concrete test was air content. In addition the hardened concrete tests were the compressive strength at 3, 7, 28, 90, 180, and 365 days, the flexural strength at 28, 90, and 365 days, and the young's modulus at 28, 90, and 365 days. Moreover; the three mixtures were exposed to elevated temperature at 100oC, 300oC, and 600oC to study the effect of elevated temperature on compressive and flexural strength.

Large quantities of paper and wood waste are generated every day, the disposal of these waste products is a problem because it requires huge space for their disposal. The possibility of using these wastes can mitigate the environmental problems related to them. This study presents an investigation on the feasibility of inclusion of waste paper ash (WPA) or wood ash (WA) as replacement materials for fly ash (FA) class F in preparation geopolymer concrete (GC). The developed geopolymer concretes for this study were prepared at replacement ratios of FA by WPA or WA of 25, 50, 75 and 100% in addition to a control mix containing 100% of FA. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solutions and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) are used as alkaline activators with 1M and 10M of sodium hydroxide solution.The geopolymer concretes have been evaluated with respect to the workability, the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength. The results indicated that there were no significant differences in the workability of the control GC mix and the developed GC mixes incorporating WPA or WA. Also, the results showed that, by incorporating of 25–50% PWA or 25% WA, the mechanical properties (compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength) of GC mixes slightly decreased. While replacement with 75–100% WPA or with 50–100% WA has reduced these mechanical properties of GC mixes. As a result, there is a feasibility of partial replacement of FA by up to 50% WPA or 25% WA in preparation of the geopolymer concrete.

Mechanical properties of reactive powder concrete (RPC) containing fly ash were investigated under different curing regimes (standard and steam curing) in this study. The experimental results indicate that, flexural strength of RPC increased considerably after steam curing, compared to the standard curing. Steam curing had no significant effect on compressive strength of RPC. Increasing the fly ash content improved the flexural strength of RPC under all curing regimes considerably. The compressive strength reached a maximum (103.8MPa) when the fly to ash and cement ratio is 0.3.
