From waste to resource recycled lime sludge: Sustainable low clinker cementitious binder, a comprehensive study on hydration, strength of concrete
This research focuses on recycling lime sludge as a calcium carbonate (CaCO3) source in producing a low-clinker cementitious binder and other supplementary cementitious materials. The study comprises three main phases. In the first phase, raw lime sludge collected from the textile industry was analy...
