The document presents an experimental study on the engineering properties of fly ash-based geopolymer concrete. The study aims to develop geopolymer concrete using fly ash as an alternative to ordinary Portland cement, in order to reduce CO2 emissions from cement production. The mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete, including compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural strength, are tested and compared to normal concrete under different curing methods. The results show that geopolymer concrete can achieve comparable or higher strengths than normal concrete, with the benefit of significantly lower CO2 emissions in its production.

Cement is the world's most used construction binder material. Cement production emits large amounts of CO2 and consumes significant amount of energy. As a result, it is necessary to find a new concrete material to replace traditional Portland cement concrete, which is environmentally stressful, yet provides an effective building material. Geopolymer is an emerging alternative binder to Portland cement for making concrete. Geopolymer concrete is principally produced by utilizing industrial by-product materials such as fly ash, blast furnace slag, and other aluminosilicate materials. RCC structures undergo serious durability problems like spalling, erosion, wear, cracking, corrosion etc. years after the construction. Repair to damaged concrete are important not only to ensure the planned useful life, but also to provide good performance and security. This paper review the literature related to the studies conducted on geopolymer and repair materials.

STUDY ON THE PROPERTIES OF FLY ASH BASED GEO POLYMER CONCRETE WITH 18 MOLAR N...IAEME Publication
Background/Objectives: Geo polymer concrete using Fly ash is introduced to reduce the usage of OPC in concrete, which is the main cause for the emission of CO2. The emission of CO2 results in the global warming and greenhouse effect all over the world. Fly ash which is one of the most important by product obtained from the thermal power plants is used as the basic material for activation by the process of geo polymerization to the concrete binder to completely replace the pozzalona portland cement (PPC). In this paper study on the behaviour of fly ash based geopolymer concrete is done. For the process of activation of silicon and aluminum content which are present in fly ash a combination of Na2SiO3 and NaOH alkaline activators of 18 Molarity were used. Methods: The method adopted in this paper is geo polymerization. The geo polymer specimens were used at ambient room temperature for a period of 3 and 7 days and later the mechanical properties of geo polymer concrete are tested using compressive, flexural and split tensile strength tests. Findings: As the alkaline activator ratio increases from 1:2 to 1:3 the compressive strength, Split tensile strength and flexural strength increases for 3days, 7days and 28days.

CHALLENGES FOR SUCCESSFUL COMMERCIALISATION OF FLY ASH - GGBS GEOPOLYMER BINDERIAEME Publication
Traditionally used Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) is becoming less appealing in the construction field due to some major drawbacks such as depletion of natural resources at a faster pace, high demand for Embodied Energy (EE) during its manufacture and massive Embodied CO2 emission (ECO2e) to the environment. In pursuit for an alternative to OPC based concrete, alkaline activated alumino-silicate based inorganic polymer binders, popularly known as geopolymer binders, are being considered as a more sustainable solution. Since 1970’s geopolymer binders are used in combination with OPC as partial substitutes but it has not yet gained momentum as a commercially viable alternative to completely substitute OPC for every application. Obstacles in the commercialization of Geopolymer concrete (GPC) are many even though it has several engineering merits and plays a role in recycling industrial waste. In this short communication, we have made every attempt to address these limitations based on our practical experience. We have also made some recommendations to overcome those barriers.
Natural resources are vanishing universal while at the similar time the generated wastes from the industry are
growing substantially. The sustainable development for construction requires the use of nonconventional and
innovative materials, and recycling of demolished and waste materials so to compensate the lack of natural
resources and to find alternative ways of conserving the environment. So, this paper presents the consequences
of an experimental study carried out to evaluate the power-driven properties of concrete mixtures in which fine
aggregate (sand) was swapped with Copper Slag (CS) while coarse aggregates were swapped by used and
recycled concrete coarse aggregate (RCA) from demolished structure or building. Both the coarse and fine
aggregate were replaced with percentages 0% (for the control mixture), 10%, 20%, 30%, of Copper Slag by
weight ratio. Tests were performed for properties of new concrete and toughened Concrete simultaneously.
Slump test was conducted to regulate the workability of the several design concrete mix. Compressive strength
and split tensile strength were determined at 7, 28 days of curing completely.
The results show that workability shrinkages slightly with rise in Copper Slag ratio, however workability for
the illustrations were within the prearranged boundary for M25 concrete. Test results shown substantial
enhancement in the strength assets of simple concrete by the insertion of CS alone whereas a reverse tendency
in observed for growing proportion of RCA in the illustration. The result of this study work displayed that
Copper slag in addition recycled concrete aggregate can be efficiently used in physical concrete as a standby of
coarse aggregate and fine aggregate (sand) respectively.

Applications/Improvements: This study helps in gaining knowledge about the morophological composition of concrete which might result in path-breaking trends in construction industry.
Green concrete for sustainable constructioneSAT Journals
Abstract There are many choices in regard to selection of materials in any type of constructions. Due to growing interest in sustainable construction, engineers and architects are motivated to choose the materials which are more sustainable. Green concrete capable for sustainable construction is characterized by application of industrial wastes to reduce consumption of natural resources and energy and pollution of the environment. Replacement of materials over nominal concrete is what makes green concrete more environmental friendly concrete. Marble sludge powder, quarry rocks, crushed concrete and fly ashes are some of the materials used for making green concrete, a sustainable construction. Keywords: Construction Industry, Environmental Impact, Geo-polymer concrete, Green Concrete, Recycled Materials, Sustainable Construction, Virgin Material.

Concrete is world’s most used material after water
for urban development. Concrete is made up of naturally
occurring material such as Cement, Aggregate and Water.
The cement is major ingredient of concrete and due to rapid
production of cement, various environmental problems are
occurred i.e. Emission of green house gases such as CO2. The
production of Portland cement is energy intensive.
Global warming gas is released when the raw
material of cement, limestone and clay is crushed and heated
in a furnace at high temperature of about 1500’C. Each year
approximately 1.89 billion tons of cement has been produced
world wide.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
