Objective:To develop geopolymer concrete (GPC) using 100% industrial waste as a binder at ambient temperature. Methods/Analysis:The low calcium fly ash based GPC was prepared with different percentage (0%,5%, and 10%) of alccofine and fly ash content (350,370,400kg/m3), to examine the fresh and hardened properties of alccofine activated GPC like density, workability, water absorption, permeable voids, water permeability, compressive and split tensile strengths using international standards. Nine mixes were prepared and investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for the determination of their phase, composition and microstructural properties. Findings: The result shows that alccofine enhances the mechanical properties and significantly reduces the transport properties of GPC. Furthermore, GPC specimens prepared with alccofine emerge to improve the densification process. The results of investigations conducted reveal that higher percentage of alccofine and fly ash content has a significant effect on the polymerisation of the GPC, which in turn improves the strength and microstructural features. A maximum compressive strength of 42 MPa is achieved with 10% alccofine without elevated heat curing. Novelty/Improvement:Alccofine plays a significant role in improving the mechanical and transport properties of low calcium fly ash based geopolymer concrete at ambient conditions providing as an alternative to heat cured GPC.Keywords

An attempt has been made in this study to investigate the properties of geopolymer concrete while in the fresh state. Fresh properties of geopolymer cement have been studied by varying concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) having concentration 8M, 10M, and 14M. Further, the ratio of Na2SiO3 to NaOH was kept in the range of 1, 1.5 and 2.5. It has been found that standard consistency decreased significantly and initial and final setting times decreased as the salt concentration of the alkaline solution and of NaOH increased. The compressive strength of geopolymer cement increased with the increase in the concentration of NaOH and with the increase in the concentration of sodium hydroxide. The compressive strength was even higher than conventional concrete at the concentration of 14M.Keywords

The present study assessed the energy requirement for the harvesting of paddy with combine harvesting with/without Super Straw Management System and wheat sowing with different farm machinery having straw retention and straw incorporated in the fields. The straw retention treatments i.e. T1and T2 whereas straw incorporation treatments i.e. T3 and T4 were taken in the study. The total energy consumption was maximum for treatment T4 (5529.92 MJ/ha), followed by treatment T3 (5487.47 MJ/ha), followed by treatment T2 (3485.15 MJ/ha) and treatment T1 (2539.40 MJ/ha). The least human energy consumption (22.01 MJ/ha), diesel energy (551.95 MJ/ha) and tractor and machinery energy (551.95 MJ/ha) was observed for treatment T1, while the maximum human energy, diesel energy, and tractor and machinery energy was observed in treatment T4 (52.17 MJ/ha), T3 (3442.63 and T4 (644.89 MJ/ha). The electrical energy (1401.78 MJ/ha) and submersible pump energy (13.68 MJ/ha) was observed in treatment T3 and T4, respectively. The residue retention practice of wheat sowing with Happy Seeder after paddy harvesting with combine harvester having Super Straw Management System is the efficient energy input to manage the paddy residue.Keywords
