A review of waste products utilized as supplements to Portland cement in concrete
TL;DR: The authors summarizes the current state of practice with regard to the use of waste products as supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) in portland cement concrete (PCC) and provides a summary of the comparatively sparse information on underutilized waste materials such as: sugarcane bagasse ash, rice husk ash, waste wood biomass ash, and waste glass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of incorporation of high volume of recycled concrete aggregates and fly ash on the strength and global warming potential of concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of using supplementary cementing materials and recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) in concrete, with emphasis on the ability of using high volumes of fly ash (FA) and RCA to reduce the environmental impacts of the concrete's production process without jeopardizing most of its long-term durability characteristics.

A life-cycle assessment of Portland cement manufacturing: comparing the traditional process with alternative technologies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the environmental impact of four cement manufacturing processes: (1) the production of traditional Portland cement, (2) blended cement (natural pozzolans), (3) cement where 100% of waste cement kiln dust is recycled into the kiln process, and (4) Portland cement produced when CKD is used to sequester a portion of the process related CO2 emissions.
