The Tiermas low temperature geothermal system, hosted in the Paleocene-Eocene carbonates of the Jaca-Pamplona basin, has been studied to evaluate the geochemistry and the temperature of the waters in the deep reservoir. These waters are of chloride-sodium ...
The combination of calcined kaolinitic clays and limestone in Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) is a promising approach to reduce the cost and the CO2 emissions of cement production by reducing the clinker content of cement. This thesis investigates the ...
CO2 injection and storage in geological reservoirs is an attractive prospect for mitigating the anthropogenic production of greenhouse gases and global warming. The technology could lead to mineral precipitation and therefore stable storage over geological ...
The study presents a comprehensive characterization of the fabric of bio-improved soils by introducing an image based quantitative analysis of the crystalline bond lattice, as a means of better understanding and interpreting the observed mechanical respons ...
The recrystallization behaviour of Al-Mn alloys (AA3xxx series alloys) is affected by randomly distributed dispersoids present before annealing, by dispersoids precipitated at grain/subgrain boundaries before the onset of recrystallization, and by disperso ...
Changes in seawater chemistry have affected the evolution of calcifying marine organisms, including their skeletal polymorph (calcite versus aragonite), which is believed to have been strongly influenced by the Mg/Ca ratio at the time these animals first e ...
Two laboratory experiments are used to provide preliminary evidence towards upscaling the microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) for soils. Fine sand is packed and subsequently subjected to MICP treatment in 11-liter cylindrical tanks. Different ...
The effect of limestone on the hydration and microstructural development of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) with different levels of replacement (34%, 54% and 74% by volume) was investigated. Up to 54% replacement of cement by limestone the mixes sh ...
This paper evaluates feasibility of alkali activation to boost the reactivity and cementitious properties of recycled glass powder ( GP), when it is used in four different binary mixtures with ordinary Portland cement ( OPC), alkali activated slag or fly a ...
In this paper, the replacement of high cost silica fume with calcined clay was investigated in UHPFRC mixes. The impact of two grades of calcined clay on the hydration and microstructural development of UHPFRC matrices was investigated, where 54% of the ce ...
