HabboudPozzolana is defined as a siliceous or siliceous and aluminous materials which in itself possess little or no cementing properties, but will in a finally divided form and in the presence of moisture react with Ca(OH)2 at ordinary temperature to form compound possessing cementious properties. Pozzolanic cement contains Portland cement as one of their main components in addition to natural … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2015 · 7,904 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINVESTIGATING EFFECTS OF INTRODUCTION OF CORNCOB ASH INTO PORTLAND CEMENTS CONCRETE: MECHANICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIESAntonio Price, Ryan Yeargin, Ellie Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefits of replacing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with Corncob Ash (CCA) blended cements. The cement industry contributes considerable amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere. The main contribution of CO2 emissions from cement production results from the process of creating Calcium Oxide (CaO) from limestone (CaCO3) commonly known as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2014 · 9,813 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistillation and Microdiffusion Modifications for total Nh4f Quantification and 15N RecoveryGaius D. Eudoxie, Gregory A. GouveiaProblem statement: Applying 15N techniques to accurately determine the fate of fixed ammonium (NH4f) in the strongly and weakly held pools require modifications to existing methodologies. Modifications are necessary for measurement of total NH4f in soils by direct digestion with 5 M HF: 1 M HCl, excluding alkali pretreatment, followed by distillation and quantification of NH4. Quantification by distillation was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,588 accessesView PDF Cite
