Slovak fly ash as cement substitution in the concrete road pavements

The book "Slovak Fly Ash as Cement Substitution in Concrete Road Pavements" offers a comprehensive analysis of the use of Slovak fly ash as a sustainable alternative to cement in the construction industry, particularly in the area of concrete road surfaces. In light of increasing industrialization and the associated ecological challenges, the necessity of utilizing natural resources more efficiently and reducing harmful emissions is emphasized. The authors, Marcela Ondová and Nadezda Stevulová, present compelling arguments that fly ash, once considered a waste product, can now be regarded as a valuable resource material. Through proper segregation and utilization of fly ash, significant benefits can be achieved, including an extended lifespan of concrete, reduced energy consumption, and a decrease in the disposal of coal combustion products. The book is based on extensive evaluations in various fields to demonstrate the suitability of fly ash as a cement substitute.
