A State of Review on Instigating Resources and Technological Sustainable Approaches in Green Construction

“…Acrylonitrile Irritates mucous membranes of the lung walls Affect habitants of aquatic organisms [65] Ammonia Make water more acidic Increasing corrosive nature [66] Arsenic and its compounds May damage the growth of the foetus Lead to cancer [67] Bitumen Lung cancer Block percolation of groundwater [68] Borax and its substances Poison to all kinds of living organisms [69] Cadmium Damage to the function of the kidney, liver, and lungs [70] Copper and its substances Affect habitants of aquatic organisms A Bio accumulative material [71] Epoxy May trigger a strong allergy reaction [72] Fluorides Decay the growth of the plant and aquatic organisms May reduce the strength of bones [73] Lead and its compounds Related to kidney and brain damages [74] Nonyl phenol React as environment oestrogen Increase the water acidity declining the growth of aquatic organisms [75] Styrene Affect the lungs' function Cause damage to the reproductive system [76] Vinyl acetate Increasing corrosive nature Affect habitants of aquatic organisms [77] Wood dust Lung cancer May trigger robust allergy [78] Demolition Dust Create eye irritation and breathing problem Reduce plant photosynthesis ability [79] Concrete is a commonly consumed product in the entire construction industry mainly due to its versatility and ability to be easily altered. Decreasing the concrete environmental burden can pave the way towards a more sustainable construction industry [80].…”

“…To reach low-impact alternative materials, the following additions can be used: rice husk ash, calcinated shale, volcanic ash, and calcinated clay. Incorporating supplementary cementitious material (SCM) into OPC has improved the material's durability, long-term strength, and workability [70]. Additionally, SCM improves cement-based structures' corrosion resistance and decreases their permeability and absorption [71].…”
