Development of Geopolymer from Pond Ash-Thermal Power Plant Waste 1st Edition

Development of Geopolymer from Pond Ash-Thermal Power Plant Waste, 1st Edition by Muktikanta Panigrahi

Turn environmental challenge into engineering opportunity with this authoritative guide that explores converting pond ash — a pervasive byproduct of thermal power plants — into high-performance geopolymer materials. Clear, compelling, and grounded in practical research, this book speaks directly to civil engineers, environmental scientists, researchers, policymakers, and construction industry professionals seeking sustainable alternatives to ordinary Portland cement.

Discover step-by-step approaches to processing pond ash, optimizing geopolymer mix designs, and evaluating mechanical and durability performance. The author presents a balanced examination of material characterization, processing techniques, and environmental and economic implications, making complex concepts accessible without sacrificing technical depth. Realistic discussions of field applicability and regional considerations make the work especially relevant for practitioners across India and other countries grappling with ash management and sustainable construction demands.

Packed with actionable insights, this volume outlines how geopolymer technology can reduce landfill pressure, lower carbon footprint, and create cost-effective construction materials from thermal power plant waste. Whether you’re developing research projects, advising policy, or implementing eco-friendly building solutions, this book provides the practical frameworks and scientific background to advance ash utilization strategies.

Informative, well-structured, and future-focused, Muktikanta Panigrahi’s book is an essential resource for anyone committed to sustainable materials and circular economy practices in the built environment. Order your copy today to lead the transition from waste to resilient, green infrastructure.
