  1. 11. Stimulated autogenous self-healing of mechanically and thermally cracked cementitious materials

    Author : Magdalena Rajczakowska; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Hans Hedlund; Erik Schlangen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Abstract : It is estimated that each year, approximately 8 billion cubic meters of concrete are produced worldwide, a vast number comparable to 1 m3 per person, making the construction industry a major contributor to overall global CO2 emissions. Throughout the manufacturing process of the most common cement binder, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), CO2 emissions reach 842 kg per ton of clinker produced. READ MORE

  2. 12. Recycling of concrete in new structural concrete

    Author : Madumita Sadagopan; Andrzej Cwirzen; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; concrete recycling; sustainability; closed-loop recycling; recycled aggregates; compressive strength; workability mechanical pre-processing; secondary cementitious materials; green concrete; climate-optimized concrete; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : Concrete waste as crushed concrete aggregates (CCA) in structural concrete gives a new purpose and prolongs the technical life of the reference concrete accomplishing closed loop recycling. This research investigates CCA as aggregate replacement in an industrial reference concrete recipe as fine aggregate fractions and overall aggregate replacement. READ MORE

  3. 13. Electrochemical Investigations of Water and Hypochlorite Reduction on a-and y-FeOOH

    Author : Kristoffer Hedenstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sodium chlorate; corrosion; electrodeposition; goethite; lepidocrocite; hypochlorite reduction; hydrogen evolution;

    Abstract : The cathodes in the electrochemical cells used for production of sodium chlorate process are made from mild steel. Due to the harsh environment in the chlorate cell, with oxidative species such as chlorate and hypochlorous acid, the cathodes corrodes. This corrosion might be beneficial, leading to surface enlargement and lower potential. READ MORE

  4. 14. Manufacturing and Characterization of Cellulose Nanofibers

    Author : Carl Moser; Mikael Lindström; Gunnar Henriksson; Kristin Syverud; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellulose; Nanofibers; Characterization; Homogenization; Endoglucanase; TEMPO; Specific surface area; Atomic force microscopy; Cellulosa; Nanofibrer; Karakterisering; Homogenisering; Endoglukanas; TEMPO; Specifik ytarea; Atomkraftmikroskopi; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The usage of wood has been a dominant driving force during the evolution of the human species. It allowed us to cook food, build tools, put roofs over our head and explore the world. The fibers making up the tree has been the most important way to store and transmit knowledge in the form of paper for centuries. READ MORE

  5. 15. Hydration, pore structure, and related moisture properties of fly ash blended cement-based materials : Experimental methods and laboratory measurements

    Author : Oskar Linderoth; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cement; Murbruk; Betong; Hydratation; Porstruktur; Sorption; Fukttransport; Mineraliska tillsatsmaterial; Flygaska; Cement; Mortar; Concrete; Hydration; Pore structure; Water vapour sorption; Moisture transport; Supplementary cementitious materials; Fly ash;

    Abstract : Cement-based materials, such as mortar and concrete, are the most employed construction materials in the world. Cement is an important component; it reacts with water to form a glue, called cement paste, which causes the material to harden. Today, cement production accounts for a significant portion of the world’s annual carbon dioxide emissions. READ MORE
