Environmentally Driven Geopolymer Cement Applications.
by Joseph Davidovits
Invited Paper, Geopolymer 2002 International Conference, October 28-29, Melbourne, Australia
Environmentally driven geopolymer applications are based on the implementation of (K,Ca)-Poly(sialate-siloxo) / (K,Ca)-Poly(sialate-disiloxo) cements. In industrialized countries (Western countries) emphasis is put on toxic waste (heavy metals) and radioactive waste safe containment. On the opposite, in emerging countries, the applications [...]

Global Warming Impact on the Cement and Aggregates Industry
by Joseph Davidovits
published in World Resource Review, Vol.6 (2), pp. 263-278 (1994)
CO2 related energy taxes are focusing essentially on fuel consumption, not on actual CO2 emission measured at the chimneys. Ordinary Portland cement, used in the aggregates industries, results from the [...]
