“…During the assessment of strategies to reduce carbon emissions, emissions and should be taken into consideration. It is accountable for something in the neighbourhood of 6% of the total CO2 emissions (Bharti et al, 2020;Amran et al, 2021). The production of one tonne of Portland cement results in the emission of about one tonne of carbon dioxide into the environment.…”

Construction materials that are friendly to the environment are now being researched and developed all over the globe in an effort to limit the use of natural resources that are depleting at an alarming rate and to cut down on the production of greenhouse gases. In this respect, geopolymer plays an extremely important function, and a large number of researchers have investigated the numerous dimensions of its viability as a material for binding. In order to alter the geopolymerisation reaction of fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag (abbreviated as GGBS) has been used into fly ash-based geopolymer concrete (abbreviated as GPC). In this paper, the influence of various proportions of GGBS (0-100%) on Fly Ash based GPC, as well as the effect of the amount of Alkaline Activated Solution (AAS) in the mixture of GPC, is studied to determine how it affects the compressive strength of the GPC under conditions of ambient temperature. It was observed from the results of the experiments that the compressive strength of the GPC increases both with an increase in the percentage of GGBS and also with an increase in the amount of the sodium silicate solution in which the concentration of sodium hydroxide in the aqueous solution is fixed at a constant value of 10M. This was the case even though the amount of sodium hydroxide that was present in the solution remained the same.
