Microstructural Characteristics of Geopolymers Based on Alkali-Activated Fly Ash
Aluminosilicate geopolymers with a high silica molar ratio have been prepared by mixing Croatian coal-ash (ASTM Class F) and sodium silicate solution (water glass, technical grade). The samples were cured at 85 °C for 8 h and 24 h in different experimental conditions. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDS) have been use...
متن کاملImmobilization of Radioactive Waste in Fly Ash Based Geopolymers
The low-level salt waste (LAW) associated with the production of nuclear materials at US Department of Energy (DOE) facilities will be disposed of in shallow land burial sites managed by the DOE. Two of the primary contaminants of interest are Tc-99 and I-129, both soluble and long-lived radionuclides. Cs-137, a short-lived, strong gamma emitter is also a soluble contaminant of concern. In addi...
متن کاملThermal Resistance Variations of Fly Ash Geopolymers: Foaming Responses
This paper presents a comparative study of the characteristic of unfoamed and foamed geopolymers after exposure to elevated temperatures (200-800 °C). Unfoamed geopolymers were produced with Class F fly ash and sodium hydroxide and liquid sodium silicate. Porous geopolymers were prepared by foaming with hydrogen peroxide. Unfoamed geopolymers possessed excellent strength of 44.2 MPa and degrade...
متن کاملEnvironmentally-Friendly Dense and Porous Geopolymers Using Fly Ash and Rice Husk Ash as Raw Materials
This paper assesses the feasibility of two industrial wastes, fly ash (FA) and rice husk ash (RHA), as raw materials for the production of geopolymeric pastes. Three typologies of samples were thus produced: (i) halloysite activated with potassium hydroxide and nanosilica, used as the reference sample (HL-S); (ii) halloysite activated with rice husk ash dissolved into KOH solution (HL-R); (iii)...
متن کاملOptimising Ambient Setting Bayer Derived Fly Ash Geopolymers
The Bayer process utilises high concentrations of caustic and elevated temperature to liberate alumina from bauxite, for the production of aluminium and other chemicals. Within Australia, this process results in 40 million tonnes of mineral residues (Red mud) each year. Over the same period, the energy production sector will produce 14 million tonnes of coal combustion products (Fly ash). Both ...
