Development of the ideal immobilization matrix for NORM and other harmful components through geopolymerization of mineral wastes. Hasselt University
Worldwide, mineral waste streams like phosphogypsum or ashes from coal and waste combustion are produced in large quantities. At the same time, the construction sector uses large numbers of 'pure' minerals, which could be replaced - from a chemical perspective - by the considered mineral waste streams. However, the presence of low concentrations of harmful components in these waste streams complicates the economical valorization. This study ...
