Waste Glass Utilization in Cement-Based Materials for Sustainable Construction: A Review

Abstract: The construction industry has a significant environmental impact, contributing considerably to CO2 emissions, natural resource depletion, and energy consumption. The construction industry is currently trending towards using alternative construction materials in place of natural materials and cement, thereby reducing the environmental impact and promoting sustainability. Two approaches have been used in this review: scientometric analysis and a comprehensive manual review on the waste glass (WG) utilization in … Show more

“…Comparable findings were also noticed in other mixes (2 and 3), and the highest FS was accomplished at 10% WGP proportion as cement substitute, which was nearly 32% and 26% higher than the reference specimen in Mixes-2 and 3 specimens, respectively. The probable causes are the filling effect and the pozzolanic nature of WGP [ 30 ]. The filling effect lowers the void ratio, causing a dense and compact structure.…”

“…The higher content of SiO 2 in the glass’s composition [ 73 ] interacts with Ca(OH) 2 in the mix to form improved calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H) gel, improving the characteristics of CCs [ 74 , 75 ]. At greater proportions of WGP (12.5 and 15%), the FS declined due to the excess quantity of WGP incorporated into mixes than needed for the pozzolanic activity [ 30 ] and cement dilution. Therefore, the application of WGP up to 10% cement substitute is advantageous for attaining the highest strength.…”

“…Globally, a substantial quantity of GW is produced, most of which is discarded in landfills, posing health and environmental risks [ 23 ]. Furthermore, CM is the most common construction material, but its overuse depletes natural resources and generates CO 2 .…”

“…It has also been noticed that using some waste materials enhances the performance of CM [ 21 , 22 ]. Globally, a substantial amount of glass waste (GW) is generated, with a substantial volume of GW discarded in landfills [ 23 ]. Although a growing number of towns are producing more municipal solid waste, landfill space is becoming gradually insufficient, especially in large cities [ 24 ].…”
