Summary: Concrete is widely used in construction, but its production has negative environmental impacts due to high CO2 emissions from cement production. Using industrial waste as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) is being studied to reduce these impacts. This literature review investigated the potential use of bamboo leaf ash (BLA) as a SCM and found that it has high pozzolanic reactivity, leading to composites with improved mechanical properties and durability when replacing cement.

Summary: This study aims to improve the pozzolanic activity of sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) through various processing protocols. The optimal SCBA, achieved through grinding the residue to 35 mm and calcination at 600 degrees C for 90 minutes, showed enhanced pozzolanic activity. Blended mortar with the optimal SCBA demonstrated increased compressive and flexural strength, as well as reduced chloride diffusion coefficient.

Summary: The study found that using bamboo leaf ash as a partial replacement for cement in mortar production can achieve certain economic benefits and mitigate environmental impacts, with the compressive strength meeting standard requirements. Bamboo leaf ash has the potential to be used as a partial substitute for cement, offering good cost-benefit and eco-efficiency based on life cycle analysis (LCA).

Summary: This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the properties of concrete containing sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) as a partial replacement of cement. The incorporation of SCBA improves the mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion of concrete, and has positive effects on the environment and cost. However, further research is needed to evaluate the long-term durability, abrasion resistance, and cost of SCBA concrete.

Summary: The study investigates the use of recycled PET and waste glass as alternative materials in the production of cementitious composites. The addition of waste materials improves the flow of fresh mortars, but also reduces the mechanical properties of the material. The results suggest that partial replacement of cement and fine aggregate is feasible in construction materials.

Summary: In this study, an eco-friendly mortar was prepared using gypsum, lime binders, and recycled waste brick. The effect of the amount of lime, gypsum, and brick powder on the mortar properties was investigated. Increasing the percentage of gypsum in the mortar improved the strength properties but resulted in a more porous structure. The replacement of sand by brick powder improved the bond strength and mechanical strength of the mortar.

Summary: This paper investigates the effects of calcination on the mineral phase, pozzolanic activity, pore structure, and harmful components of electrolytic manganese residue (EMR). The results show that calcination at 800 degrees C improves the activity of EMR and effectively disposes of hazardous elements. The calcined EMR exhibits high strength activity index (SAI) and meets regulatory standards.

Summary: A new high-durability mortar has been developed to repair eroded concrete structures, which can quickly restore the mechanical properties and enhance the durability performance. The new material showed less crystallization, dense internal structure, and significantly lighter erosion compared to ordinary polymer mortar. The high-durability mortar exhibited nearly 20% improved strength and better resistance to corrosion.

Summary: This study developed high-strength and low CO2 emission mortars using copper slag as aggregate and Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs). The optimized mixture achieved a compressive strength of 81 MPa. The use of copper slag as aggregate reduced expansion and prevented strength loss after freezing-thawing. SEM images revealed the presence of air voids smaller than 200 nm. Copper slag can be used to replace part of the cement and aggregate, and basalt fiber can be used up to 2% at a length of 6 mm.

Summary: The study investigated the influence of using lightweight fine aggregate instead of conventional sand for internal curing and pozzolanic reaction to improve the chloride penetration resistance of heat-cured concrete. The results showed that heat-cured mortars with 53% LWFA and 47% conventional sand as aggregates had reduced coefficients of rapid chloride migration by 20.2% and 41.4% at 28 days and 60 days, respectively.
