Effects of using rice straw and cotton stalk ashes on the properties of lightweight self-compacting concrete

Properties of eco-friendly cement mortar contained recycled materials from different sources

“…Moreover, the cement cost represents about 20% of the concrete cost [16]. Therefore, there has been a need to find alternatives to cement and natural aggregate from the economical and environmental viewpoint [17,18]. Extensive research has been done over the past years to find sustainable alternative to natural aggregate and cement.…”

Effect of high temperature on the mechanical properties of basalt fibre self-compacting concrete as an overlay material

“…Fibrous concrete has a low yield value to guarantee high workability and an appropriate viscosity to prevent bleeding and segregation [7], and it can retain its homogeneity during placement to ensure sufficient durability of the structural members. Numerous studies have demonstrated that introducing fibres into SCC enhances SCC's mechanical properties, including toughness, compressive strength, tensile or flexural strength and impact resistance [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. This concrete is usually characterised by low permeability, which plays a crucial role in repairing concrete that has deteriorated due to environmental factors.…”

Bioactivity and Biocompatibility Properties of Sustainable Wollastonite Bioceramics from Rice Husk Ash/Rice Straw Ash: A Review

“…This is a modern medical procedure that is expected to be necessary. Most agricultural waste studies have focused primarily on its energy potential or use as functional renewable raw materials and an efficient chemical feedstock in producing valuable products, due to its abundance, low cost of availability, and renewability [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. Microorganisms or their components carry out this conversion into valuable goods or energy sources [ 12 , 13 ].…”
