Cementitious activity of iron ore tailing and its utilization in cementitious materials, bricks and concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, three directions for the use of iron ore tailings in construction and building materials, namely production of cementitious materials, preparation of bricks as well as preparation of concrete, are discussed.

Development of sustainable alkali-activated bricks using industrial wastes
TL;DR: In this paper, a review on the development of sustainable bricks by alkali-activation of industrial wastes is presented, in which the influence of parameters on physico-mechanical and durability related properties are evaluated.

Influence of tea waste concentration in the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of brick clay mixtures.
TL;DR: The use of pore-makers in the brick production is reducing the consumption of clean clay resources as well as lightness of the baked brick body as mentioned in this paper. But, the use of Pore-Makers is not suitable for all types of bricks.

Natural clay substitution by calamine processing wastes to manufacture fired bricks
TL;DR: In this article, a method to substitute natural clays by treated calamine processing wastes (TCPMT) to manufacture value added fired bricks is presented. But the results show that the added TCPMT decreases the mechanical strength of bricks due to the increased formation of pores and the apparition of some coarse grains which are considered as regions of weakness of the studied bricks.

An environmental evaluation of geopolymer based concrete production: reviewing current research trends
TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a detailed environmental evaluation of geopolymer concrete production using the Life Cycle Assessment methodology and found that the production of most standard types of OPC concrete has a slightly lower impact on global warming than standard Ordinary Portland Cement.
