Abstract

The production of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) is rising with a rate of approximately 3% per year. Due to growing environmental concerns of the cement industry, alternative cement technologies have become an area of increasing interest. It is now believed that new binders are indispensable for enhanced environmental and durability performance. On the other hand, already huge volumes of fly ash are generated around the world, most of the fly ash is not effectively used, and a large part of it is disposed in landfills which lead to the land pollution in various ways (leachate and infertility of soil). As the need for power increases, the volume of fly ash would increase. Both the above issues are to be addressed.
