Abstract
A nanozeolite modified green concrete contains alkali-activated natural pozzolan. Natural pozzolan is a green and sustainable material, potentially useful in green concrete, e.g., to curb greenhouse gas emissions associated with ordinary Portland cement production. Nanozeolite (NZ) is present as an additive to the green concrete, e.g., at 3 to 5 wt. %, of natural pozzolan to improve strength development and microstructural properties, resulting in superior strength and denser microstructure compared to a green concrete without nanozeolite.
