PROSPECTIVE BENEFITS OF USING ACTIVATED CARBON IN CEMENT COMPOSITES- AN OVERVIEW
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
An exhaustive study of available literature on use of activated carbon in cement composites was done. Adsorptive nature of activated carbon can be effectively used to remove toxic air pollutants such as nitrogen oxide, volatile organic compounds by adsorbing to concrete elements (chimneys, tunnels etc.). Experimental research work carried out on cement composites containing activated carbon revealed its potential ability to improve physical, mechanical and durability properties of cement composites. A comprehensive review of selected literature was carried out and the significant findings are presented in this paper. Researchers across the globe had experimentally showed that presence of activated carbon at 1 to 4% in cement composites positively influence various properties of cement composites
