A STATE OF THE ART REVIEW OF GREEN CONCRETE
Keywords:
Green concrete, Sustainable development, Cleaner productionAbstract
Global warming is a critical global issue given that it has the potential to jeopardize all human society. Among many causes, the cement and concrete industry is responsible for a major portion of greenhouse gas emissions. This review described perspectives on the uses and potential uses of cement and concrete as a green material, guidelines for green concrete. Related to cleaner technologies for the production of concrete, the major targets are achieving (a) a significant reduction in CO2 emissions, (b) a significant reduction in energy consumption and fossil fuel in the cementmanufacturing process, (c) a significant reduction in the use of substances that endanger health and/or the environment, (d) significant savings associated with the use of cement by partially replacing it with fly ash waste and/or other kinds of waste materials, (e) a significant increase in the use of new cement replacement materials, and (f) significant development of various possibilities relevant to recycling cement/concrete and the use of alternative aggregates.
