Slag uses in making an ecofriendly and sustainable concrete: A review

A single ton of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) demands around 4.0 G Joule energy and creates about a ton of CO2 emission. As part of our effort to preserve the environment, the incorporation of ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) or fully replaced by alkali-activated slag (AAS) as an altern...
