Area:	Earth, Atmosphere & Environment Sciences, Material Sciences, Chemical Sciences
Focus Area:	Geopolymer Concrete
Patent:	US9266783
Social Benefits:	The above Know - How developed utilizing Industrial waste generated from Coal based thermal power plants i.e. Fly Ash , Bulk utilization of industrial waste i.e. Fly Ash, Developed Fly Ash basded Geopolymer concrete possesses improved engineering properties as compared to conventional cement concrete, No water curing is required for strength development, Eco-Friendly process : about 80% less CO2 emission as compared to conventional cement concrete, Energy efficient process - Can be made at ambient temperature (35-450C approximately), Road gets ready for traffic after 7 days of ambient drying, Geopolymer Concrete Road can be made using Conventional road making Plants/Machineries, The developed process of making advanced Geopolymeric concrete will be useful for making eco-friendly and low maintenance rigid pavement roads.
