Soil reinforcement through addition and subsequent carbonation of wollasonite microfibres
This study describes the application of wollasonite microfibres for stabilising soil with the additional function of sequestering CO2. The high aspect ratio, needle-like structure of wollasonite imparted a microfibre mechanical...
Sustainable soil stabilisation with ground granulated blast-furnace slag activated by olivine and sodium hydroxide
Mohammad Hamed Fasihnikoutalab, Shahram Pourakbar, Richard Ball, Cise Unuler, Nuno Cristelo
Jul 31, 2020
Ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS), activated with olivine (Mg2SiO4) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH), was used to stabilise a clayey soil. Mechanical and microstructural properties of the stabilised soil were assessed...

Laboratory-scale model of carbon dioxide deposition for soil stabilisation
Mohammad Fasihnikoutalab, Afshin Asadi, Bujang Huat, Paul Westgate, Richard Ball, Shahram Pourakbar
Jan 01, 0001
Olivine sand is a natural mineral, which, when added to soil, can improve the soil’s mechanical properties while also sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) from the surrounding environment. The originality of this paper stems from the...
