As the construction industry continues to grow, the demand for concrete remains a top priority. However, traditional Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) manufacture poses significant environmental challenges. Not only does it consume a substantial quantity of environmental resources & energy, then it also discharges a large volume of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. To address these issues, it becomes crucial to explore alternative sources that can counter the adverse effects of carbon dioxide while remaining eco-friendly and maintaining concrete's ultimate strength. One such alternative is Geopolymer Concrete (GPC), which is synthesized from fly ash, an inorganic aluminum-silicate compound. GPC exhibits improved mechanical properties when related to OPC. Several factors influence the development of GPC, including curing conditions, workability, setting times, molarity of alkaline and ratio of solution of alkaline to binder. By embracing Geopolymer Concrete, the construction industry can move towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to building, reducing the carbon footprint associated with concrete production and its impact on the environment.
