Beskrivning

The Handbook of Sustainable Concrete and Industrial Waste Management summarizes key research trends in recycling and reusing concrete and industrial waste to reduce their environmental impact. This volume also includes important contributions in collaboration with the CRI-TEST Innovation Lab, Naples - Acerra.

Part one discusses eco-friendly innovative cement and concrete and reviews key substitute materials. Part two analyzes the use of industrial waste as aggregates and the mechanical properties of concrete containing waste materials. Part three discusses differences between innovative binders, focusing on alkali-activated and geopolymer concrete. Part four provides a thorough overview of the life cycle assessment (LCA) of concrete containing industrial wastes and the impacts related to the logistics of wastes, the production of the concrete, and the management of industrial wastes.

By providing research examples, case studies, and practical strategies, this book is a state-of-the-art reference for researchers working in construction materials, civil or structural engineering, and engineers working in the industry.



  • Offers a systematic and comprehensive source of information on the latest developments in sustainable concrete;
  • Analyzes different types of sustainable concrete and innovative binders from chemical, physical, and mechanical points of view;
  • Includes real case studies showing application of the LCA methodology.

Mer om författaren

Francesco Colangelo is a Full Professor of Innovative Materials for Civil Engineering and the director of the master’s course in Safety Engineering in the Department of Engineering at Parthenope University of Naples, Italy. His main research areas include recycling of waste materials in concrete and geo-environmental and civil applications, treatment of MSWI fly ash, application of lifecycle assessment methodology to various processes for preparing innovative building materials, evaluation of the durability of mortars and concrete, stabilization and solidification of hazardous wastes, and synthesis of geopolymeric eco-sustainable materials based on industrial waste. He has extensive consultancy experience in the treatment and recycling of solid waste, remediation of old landfills, and resource recovery plants. He has served as the principal investigator for numerous research projects in collaboration with public and private companies. Since 2012, he has been a senior member of RILEM.Raffaele Cioffi has a degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Naples Federico II. He is Professor of Materials Science and Technology and Materials Engineering at the University of Naples “Parthenope”, Naples, Italy. He has been the Head of the Department of Technology and the director of the Research Quality Centre of the University of Naples "Parthenope". He has been the director of the Sustainable Development Engineering Laboratory of the Department of Technology, the president of the Teaching Board for the Industrial Engineering Course, and he is the coordinator of the Technical and Scientific Committee for the Master Course in Safety Engineering of the University of Naples " Parthenope". He is the vice-president of the Italian Association on Materials Engineering (AIMAT). Ilenia Farina is an Assistant Professor in Materials Science and Engineering in the Department of Engineering at Parthenope University of Naples, Italy. She received a DPhil in Energy Science and Engineering from the same university. Her main research activities focus on the stabilization and solidification of hazardous industrial solid wastes, soils, and sediments; the development of energy-saving blended cements, concrete, and geopolymer materials made with coal fly ash, blast furnace slag, MSWI ashes, and other industrial by-products; the inertization of industrial and asbestos-containing wastes and sediments through mechanochemical treatments, with subsequent reuse of the resulting products as building materials; and life cycle assessment (LCA) of production processes for eco-compatible construction materials. She is responsible for several research projects in collaboration with public and private companies.
