Concrete is one of the most commonly used among construction materials. Generally, concrete is produced by using Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) as binder and it contributes conservatively to 5 - 8% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions. New low - CO2 binders are therefore needed to satisfy the demand for concrete. The objective of the present study is to perform a detailed environmental impact analysis of standard geopolymer concrete and compare it with OPC concrete

Abstract
Concrete is one of the most commonly used among construction materials. Generally, concrete is produced by using Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) as binder and it contributes conservatively to 5 - 8% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions. New low - CO2 binders are therefore needed to satisfy the demand for concrete. The objective of the present study is to perform a detailed environmental impact analysis of standard geopolymer concrete and compare it with OPC concreteI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
