Review of Costs and carbon emissions for geopolymer pastes in comparison to ordinary portland cement

Content of review 1, reviewed on December 06, 2016

This authors reported a 44 to 64 % reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of Australian geopolymers when compared to OPC, However the information on the geopolymers performance is scarce and it is not easy to comprehend why sodium silicate free mixtures didn´t show the lowest emissions as expected since this admixture has a high carbon footprint (1.514 kg CO2-e per kg sodium silicate).
