Effect of plant cellulose microfibers on hydration of cement composites

Seongwoo Gwon et al.

Summary: This study investigated the hydration characteristics of cement composites incorporating plant cellulose microfibers (CMFs) as a sustainable additive. The findings suggest that a higher amount of CMFs generally leads to a larger delay in the setting time and lower compressive strength, but mixtures with 0.3-0.6% CMFs showed reasonably high strengths compared to plain mixtures. The CMFs refined the pore structures of the cement composites and promoted further hydration.

Biodegradation of creosote-treated wood by two novel constructed microbial consortia for the enhancement of methane production

Sameh Samir Ali et al.

Summary: The study investigated the biodegradation of creosote treated wood (CTW) for biomethane production, with two novel CTW-degrading microbial consortia successfully reducing lignocellulosic content and increasing methane yields. Comparisons of ecotoxicity between treated and untreated CTW showed a significant decrease in toxicity after biodegradation, demonstrating the promising potential of the constructed microbial consortia for biofuel production and bioremediation.

Setting characteristics of natural cellulose fiber reinforced cement composite

Hyeonseok Choi et al.

Summary: This study explored the setting characteristics of natural cellulose fiber-reinforced cement composites based on varying dosages of hemp and jute fibers. The research revealed that the compressive strength of the composites was influenced by the fiber mix proportion, with higher fiber content leading to longer setting times for the cement.

Recycling waste wood in cement mortars towards the regeneration of sustainable environment

Ceren Ince et al.

Summary: The importance of reducing climate change by mitigating global warming potentials is implicitly associated with energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, and environmental hazards. Waste wood materials can be utilized in cement mortars as a greener alternative, providing a more sustainable option for waste disposal and saving natural resources and CO2 emissions.
