“…In addition, concrete has been produced with traditional supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) that possess a high pozzolanic activity [10], such as fly ash (FA) [11][12][13][14], silica fume (SF) [15][16][17] and ground granulated blast slag (GGBS) [2,[18][19][20][21] that yielded notable improvement in strength and durability. Numerous industrial solid by-products containing calcareous siliceous, and aluminous materials (fly ash, ultrafine fly ash, silica fume, etc.…”

A sustainable solution for the global construction industry can be partial substitution of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) sourced from industrial end-of-life (EOL) products that contain calcareous, siliceous and aluminous materials. Candidate EOL materials include fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), natural pozzolanic materials like sugarcane bagasse ash (SBA), palm oil fuel ash (POFA), rice husk ash (RHA), mine tailings, marble dust, construction and demolition debris (CDD). Studies have revealed these materials to be cementitious and/or pozzolanic in nature. Their use as SCMs would decrease the amount of cement used in the production of concrete, decreasing carbon emissions associated with cement production. In addition to cement substitution, EOL products as SCMs have also served as coarse and also fine aggregates in the production of eco-friendly concretes.

Sustainability in the manufacture of different construction materials raises many important issues. Nowadays, there is increasing demand for such materials to be produced using environmentally friendly, low energy consuming production methods. This paper presents a review of the current research relating to the use of various production techniques for claybased construction materials. The techniques which will be reviewed are: blending and stabilising, alkali activation (geopolymerisation) and the use of microwave heating as an innovative sintering, curing and drying method. The advantages and disadvantages of each technique will be discussed. Additionally, a comparison between the environmental and economic aspects of the studied production techniques along with some suggestions to improve the sustainability of different production techniques will be discussed.

“…El análisis del confort térmico constituye un tema recurrente en los estudios de caso y los análisis de consumo de energía asociados a la sostenibilidad de una construcción. En los últimos cinco años se advirtió que los países en vías de desarrollo están empezando a incorporar conceptos de sostenibilidad asociaos a la resolución de problemas típicos de la región, como los sismos y el uso de materiales reciclados (Sekhar y Nayak, 2018). Un ejemplo de esta nueva tendencia es el desarrollo de un suelo construido sobre neumáticos reciclados que absorben los movimientos producidos por un terremoto, destinado a la construcción de hábitats en Ecuador.…”

“…conductividad térmica, su bajo precio y su origen vegetal, lo que conlleva una carga muy baja por emisiones de CO². El uso de materiales sostenibles está directamente relacionado con su disponibilidad geográfica, una de las variables tenidas en cuenta para el cálculo de la huella de carbono de cualquier material (Sekhar y Nayak, 2018).…”
