| Summary: | Cement is still the dominant binder supply for concrete industry.
The most important environment and health issues facing the
cement industry are greenhouse gas emissions and atmospheric
releases, primarily of carbon dioxide. Cement production is
highly energy intensive process involving significant
environmental damage with respect to carbon dioxide
production. This review paper presents the usage of pozzolan
such silica fume, metakaolin and fly ash as a supplementary
cementation material that induces sustainability to concrete by
reducing the carbon dioxide emission of cement production. In
additional, review is also done on the effectiveness of metakaolin,
silica fume and fly ash on the compressive strength related to
durability of high performance concretes. |
